Laver Cup - Alcaraz masters Shelton, the two teams are tied again!
This 2024 Laver Cup is full of suspense.
After 6 matches, John McEnroe's and Bjorn Borg's teams have each won three times, for an overall score of 4-4.
Indeed, after Tiafoe's fine success against Medvedev, Carlos Alcaraz reacted perfectly.
Playing singles at the Laver Cup for the first time in his career, he dominated a Ben Shelton who quickly found himself without a solution (6-4, 6-4).
Resisting his opponent's flashes of brilliance and displaying a new-found consistency, the El Palmar prodigy did justice to his status and thus enabled the European team to get back up to speed.
The next duel will be a reunion between Alexander Zverev and Taylor Fritz.
As a reminder, the American came out on top, albeit with difficulty, in their last two matches. Zverev will probably be keen to get his revenge and put his team back in the lead.
