Team World rallied to beat Team Europe 13-8 to win the Laver Cup for the first time after five attempts on Sunday.
Team World trailed behind 8-4 after the first two days, but won three matches in a row in the last competition day on Sunday to turn the table.
The Laver Cup, held from September 23 to 25 in London, is a men’s tennis tournament played between players from Europe and and players from the rest of the world. Each win secures one point on the opening day, two points on day two, and three points on the final matchday.
On the third day, Felix Auger Aliassime paired up with America’s Jack Sock to defeat Italy’s Matteo Berrettini and British veteran Andy Murray 2-6, 6-3 and 10-8 in the doubles match. The 22-year-old Canadian then kept his momentum in the singles match, outplaying Serbia’s Novak Djokovic 6-3, 7-6 (3).
