South Africa was excluded from the tournament as part of the growing international opposition to its apartheid policies.{{cite web |last1=Steve |first1=Tignor |title=The Shots Not Heard Around the World |url=https://www.tennis.com/pro-game/2014/11/shots-not-heard-around-world/53301/ |website=tennis.com |access-date=29 September 2019 |date=19 November 2014 |quote="South Africa had been banned from the Davis Cup entirely from 1970 to ’73"}}
