The America Zone was one of the two regional zones of the 1935 International Lawn Tennis Challenge.

6 teams entered the America Zone: 4 teams competed in the North & Central America Zone, while 2 teams competed in the South America Zone. The winner of each sub-zone would play against each other to determine who moved to the Inter-Zonal Final to compete against the winner of the Europe Zone.[1]

The United States defeated Mexico in the North & Central America Zone final, and Brazil defeated Uruguay in the South America Zone final.[2][3] In the Americas Inter-Zonal Final, the United States received a walkover after Brazil withdrew, and went on to face Germany in the Inter-Zonal Final.[4]
