“It was great being part of Team Europe at the Laver Cup in Berlin this year,” said Alcaraz.  “To have all the players I’m used to fighting against, together on the bench supporting me, sharing the same goal – to lift the trophy – is unique. I found it really motivating. I loved the Laver Cup energy, the environment, the atmosphere, and I can’t wait to be part of it again in San Francisco.”

Fritz, who reached his first Grand Slam final at the US Open this year, will be playing for Team World for the fifth time in the Laver Cup.

“I am pumped to represent Team World once again,” said Fritz. “The atmosphere, camaraderie, team chemistry and excitement of the Laver Cup is unlike any other tournament.  I’m sure the energy will be amazing and hopefully the home fans will come out in force to support us in San Francisco. We really want the Laver Cup back!”

Other players will be confirmed in the months to come. The tournament will be held from September 19 to 21 next year.
