LONDON - The Laver Cup team event between Europe and the rest of the world is to become an official part of the ATP Tour, the governing body of men’s tennis said on Friday.
This year’s tournament in Geneva in September will have no ranking points but Friday’s announcement means it will have the same back-up and logistical support as other ATP Tour events. The Laver Cup last year saw a European team captained by Bjorn Borg and including the likes of Federer, Novak Djokovic and Alexander Zverev take on John McEnroe’s world team featuring Nick Kyrgios, Kevin Anderson and John Isner.
“As I come closer to the end of my playing career, it’s wonderful to know that the Laver Cup will be part of the tour that I’ve dedicated more than 20 years of my life to,” he said.“As President of the ATP Player Council I’m proud to support this collaboration,” the Serb said.
