Zverev devuelve a Europa el éxito en la Laver Cup

Alexander Zverev secured a decisive point for the European team during the Laver Cup held at the O2 in London this weekend. The 29-year-old German capitalized on his status as a favorite, defeating Learner Tien 7-6(3) and 6-3, and tipped the scales in his team's favor. Earlier, the doubles team of Flavio Cobolli and Jakub Mensik won the first match of the day against Alex de Minaur and Taylor Fritz 7-5 and 6-3.

As a result, Carlos Alcaraz and Rafa Nadal, who were set to play the final two matches of the competition, were not needed. Zverev had already been a key player on Saturday, with a win that balanced the score against Rest of World. The final score is 13-5, reinforcing Zverev's status as the most successful player in the tournament's history since its inception in 2017, with 26 victories.
