The hostilities of this first edition of the Laver Cup finally begin this Friday with the first four matches on the program.
After two consecutive successes for Team World, the European team did everything it could to win the trophy this season, fielding a real dream team that includes no fewer than 5 players from the top 10 (Alcaraz, Medvedev, Zverev, Ruud, Dimitrov).
So, the competition will open this Friday with a first single between Casper Ruud and Francisco Cerundolo, not before 1 p.m.
Right after, the event will offer us a match that will have the flavor of a reunion since Stefanos Tsitsipas will face the man who eliminated him at the start of the US Open, Thanasi Kokkinakis.
As for the night session, it is first of all Grigor Dimitrov who will open the show with a duel against Alejandro Tabilo (not before 7 p.m.).
This first will finally end with the doubles match which will pit Alexander Zverev and Carlos Alcaraz against the 100% American pair composed by John McEnroe, namely the association between Taylor Fritz and Ben Shelton.
As a reminder, each victory acquired during this first day will allow the team concerned to gain a point.
The first team to get at least 13 points wins the Laver Cup.
