Alexander Zverev lived up to his ‘best player in the world’ tag to secure Laver Cup success for Team Europe in London and give rival Carlos Alcaraz the day off.
Zverev had been talked up by Alcaraz after recent French Open and US Open wins before this Ryder Cup-style event at The O2, but the German lost in the doubles on Friday and let slip multiple match points against Alex De Minaur on Saturday.
