Rafael Nadal, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are among the players who were announced by their countries for the Davis Cup Final 8 in Malaga, to be played in November.

Nadal, who held No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings for 209 weeks in his career, has not competed since the Paris Olympics. His doubles partner there, Alcaraz, won two of the four majors — Roland Garros and Wimbledon — this year. They will try to secure glory for Spain.

The man who triumphed at the other two majors, the Australian Open and US Open, Sinner will lead the Italian contingent, which will also include Lorenzo Musetti, Flavio Cobolli, Andrea Vavassori and Simone Bolelli.

Another intriguing team is the United States, which will feature Taylor Fritz, Tommy Paul, Ben Shelton, Rajeev Ram and Austin Krajicek.

In the Final 8, Italy will face Argentina, the United States will play Australia, Germany will take on Canada and the Netherlands will battle Spain.

The quarter-finals will take place from 19-21 November, with the semi-finals on 22-23 November and the final on 24 November.
