Alcaraz Saves Match Points, Equals Federer Laver Cup Record
🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
Alcaraz's clutch comeback and doubles win showed he can carry Team Europe on both singles and doubles momentum, putting the squad in strong position before Sunday's decisive session.
💡 Why it matters
Tying Federer's record and building a 3-1 cushion raises the pressure on Team World, which now needs a near-perfect final day to retain the Laver Cup.
Carlos Alcaraz saved two match points against Taylor Fritz and later won a doubles match with Jakub Mensik to give Team Europe a 3-1 lead over Team World after the opening day of the Laver Cup. Alcaraz's performance also tied Roger Federer's Laver Cup points record.
