Team World will arrive to the Laver Cup 2022 hoping for their first victory in any of the five previous editions, an underdog victory based on world rankings, and the chance to be the villains in Roger Federer’s final match.
Federer declared last week that the showpiece in London, an ATP event envisioned as the tennis equivalent of the Ryder Cup in golf, will be his final competitive match.
Federer has participated in the Laver Cup three times before, and on each occasion he has been ranked no lower than third, but this time the 41-year-old from Switzerland does not have a rating as he competes for Team Europe among players like Rafael Nadal and Casper Ruud.
The Laver Cup 2022 schedule, participant list, and ticket purchasing information are provided below.
