2000 Davis Cup Americas Zone Group I#Chile vs. Argentina
{{Short description|One of three regional zones that competed for the regional Davis Cup}}
{{Main|2000 Davis Cup Americas Zone}}
The Americas Zone was one of the three regional Davis Cup competition zones in 2000.
In the Americas Zone there were four different tiers, called groups, in which teams competed against each other to advance to the upper tier. Winners in Group I advanced to the World Group qualifying round, along with losing teams from the World Group first round. Teams who lost their respective ties competed in the relegation play-offs, with winning teams remaining in Group I, whereas teams who lost their play-offs were relegated to the Americas Zone Group II in 2001.{{Cite web|url=https://www.daviscup.com/en/draws-results/historic-format/group-i/americas.aspx#/2000|title=2000 Americas Group I|publisher=DavisCup.com|accessdate=11 June 2020}}
The second-round tie between Chile and Argentina was marred by crowd trouble, which resulted in the Argentinian team withdrawing from the tie. Chile was declared the winner of the tie by the Davis Cup Committee. However, subsequent rulings prevented Chile from progressing to the Qualifying Round; additionally, both teams received fines, and Chile was barred from hosting home ties until 2002.{{cite news |title=Chile and Argentina kicked out of 2000 Davis Cup |url=https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/tennis/chile-and-argentina-kicked-out-of-2000-davis-cup-280899.html |archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/archive/20220501/https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/tennis/chile-and-argentina-kicked-out-of-2000-davis-cup-280899.html |archive-date=2022-05-01 |url-access=subscription |url-status=live |accessdate=19 May 2020 |agency=Associated Press |work=The Independent |date=16 April 2000}}{{cbignore}}
