The tournament promoted by the Swiss tennis player will be his farewell after announcing that he is retiring at the age of 41
Roger Federer trains in the Laver Cup 2022
The 2022 Laver Cup takes place this weekend, from the 23rd to the 25th of September. The O2 track in London will host the tournament that pits the European team against the rest of the world.
The first is Roger Federer, who will perform for the last time in the world of tennis after he announced his retirement last week at 41.
The Swiss will not play singles and awaits Rafa Nadal, his friend and eternal rival on the courts for two decades, in doubles.
In addition to Nadal, the same team will be Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Federer's old rivals. To these, we must add the youngest like Casper Ruud and Stefanos Tsitsipas. The Italian Berrettini remains in reserve.
The world team, led by John McEnroe, will include tennis players Auger-Aliassime, Jack Sock, Frances Tiafoe, Taylor Fritz, Alex de Miñaur and Diego Schwartzman. In reserve is the American Paul.
On the first day, the victory is worth one point, the second two and the third three. On the last day of the competition, the order is reversed, and the match that begins is the doubles, followed by the singles.
Each match is played to the best of three sets. A total of 24 points are distributed, so the first to reach 13 is the winner. In the event of a tie at 12, a decisive match would be played on Sunday.
The first game of each day begins around 2:00 p.m., and the second begins as soon as the first one ends. The third is played no earlier than 19 or 20 hours.
This way, from this Friday, 23, you can see the Laver Cup 2022 from 1:30 p.m. with the first game. On Saturday, the day begins at 2:00 p.m. and on Sunday at 1:00 p.m. The tournament can be seen live on the Eurosport channel and following the main news on the Cadena SER website.
