By IANS News September 20, 2025 • 13:10 PM View: 800

Laver Cup: Defending champions Team Europe surged ahead on the opening day of the Laver Cup 2025, winning three of the four matches at the Chase Center to take control of their clash with Team World.

The highlight came late in the evening as newly crowned world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz partnered Jakub Mensik to sparkle in doubles action.

Alcaraz, who reclaimed the top ranking after winning his sixth Grand Slam title at the U.S. Open earlier this month, showed off his full repertoire at the net and from the baseline to help seal a 7-6(7), 6-4 win over Taylor Fritz and Alex Michelsen. The decisive moment came in the 10th game of the second set when Europe’s young pairing secured a crucial break.
