As a result of the change in the format, there have been many outbursts among players, officials, and fans. The French tennis federation President accused Gerad Pique in an interview with SportKlub of prioritizing money over tennis. It's not serious for me. Pique doesn't care about tennis. What he wants is to find a system that will bring him money. They have lost a lot of money in these three years and now the prize pool is nowhere near what we started with. I think the interest in sports has completely disappeared," he said.

French tennis federation president Giles Moreton Giles Moreton has raised a few questions about the new layout of the Davis Cup. He stated that very few people would like to watch a match in a host country that isn't competing in the match-up, pointing out that that the Belgium vs Australia tie is being held in Hamburg. He stated that the host cities had paid huge amounts of money to hold the tournament's matches but are now running on a loss. Moreton further expressed his desire to make France the organizer of the Davis Cup. "Maybe the duel between Germany and France in Hamburg will be interesting. But who in this city will be interested in the duel between Belgium and Australia?" he said. "The host cities paid big money to host. And now they are at an obvious loss.
