Alcaraz defeats Fritz, Europe wins the Laver Cup!

Alcaraz defeats Fritz, Europe wins the Laver Cup!

Since Friday, the title had been promised to them. With a team of exceptional quality (5 members of the top 10), Bjorn Borg seemed to have almost triumphed automatically.

But nothing went according to plan. Ill-treated by an unashamed Team World, the men in blue came very close to the exit.

Frances Tiafoe, who had been ahead on the scoreboard since Saturday evening, came within two games of clinching the title for his team.

In the end, it was the old continent that brought home the crown this year.

Saved by a combative Zverev and an ever-solid Alcaraz, the Europeans can breathe a sigh of relief.

Indeed, after Alexander Zverev's comeback against Frances Tiafoe, Carlos Alcaraz perfectly managed the stakes in a decisive match (6-2, 7-5).

Up against Taylor Fritz, finalist at the last US Open, the Spaniard dominated proceedings for a long time, resisting his opponent's surge of pride to give his team the title.
