In the Fed Cup Nations Ranking ( English Fed Cup Nations Ranking ) are determined by the International Tennis Federation , the tennis teams of the ladies out in an official ranking (ITF) since of 2002. The basis for the rating are official matches between the national teams in the women's Fed Cup .
The list was introduced to make a comparison between the nations. The nation ranking is updated after each Fed Cup round and contains all the nations participating in the Fed Cup.
It is mainly used for seeding in all groups of the competition, with seed number one being last year's winner and seed number two being last year's finalist, regardless of what number of points they have in the nation ranking.
Scoring
The Fed Cup Nations Ranking lists the successes of the nations participating in the Fed Cup over a four-year period. All wins within the last four years are taken into account, so that after each round in the Fed Cup, the oldest results are no longer counted. More recent tournament successes are weighted more heavily in the evaluation than older successes. Victories achieved in the last 12 months are weighted 100%, results achieved for more than 12 months but within the last two years are weighted with 75%, results in the third year with 50% and in the fourth year weighted at 25%. The 100 points achieved would gradually become 75, then 50 and finally 25 points, before they are no longer taken into account after four years.
There are points for the successfully completed round as well as bonus points for a victory depending on the ranking position of the opposing teams. If a team gets through a walkover without a win, it only receives the points for the round reached, but no bonus points. No points are awarded for consolation rounds.
