Team World Clinches Laver Cup 15–9 in San Francisco

The Agassi-led squad hit the 15-point mark to secure a third crown at the exhibition event.

Overview

  • Alexander Zverev fell to Taylor Fritz 3:6, 6:7 (4:7), a defeat that confirmed Team Europe’s overall loss.
  • Zverev had earlier been beaten by Alex de Minaur 1:6, 4:6, part of a Saturday slide that left Europe down 3:9.
  • Carlos Alcaraz lost to Fritz on Saturday but won his singles and doubles on Sunday, which was not enough to change the outcome.
  • The format requires 13 points to win and awards three points per match on the final day, leaving Europe needing a four-match sweep after Saturday’s deficit.
  • Team World was led by captain Andre Agassi, and the Laver Cup offers prize money without ATP ranking points, including $250,000 per player for the winners.
