Roger Federer’s Laver Cup Brings In Quirky Russian ATP Star to Add More Flavor to Their 2024 Line-Up

The Laver Cup teams are getting ready to give their best! While the team selection is still going on, Roger Federer’s tournament has added two of the most popular and unexpected faces at the same time. This year, Carlos Alcaraz will make his debut with Team Europe, and the team is ready to add more charm to the group. Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev will be the new participants.

While last year the Russian tennis player left the tournament because of his busy tennis schedule, this year he is ready to give his best as a part of Team Europe. Let’s take a look at what their captain has to say about having the two champions on his team.

Bjorn Borg’s team adds two valuable players

As the new tennis season has started, the teams in the Laver Cup are getting ready in full swing. This year, the 20-year-old Spaniard will make his debut in Berlin in the team event by becoming a part of Team Europe. Borg is ready to take the trophy back from the team World’s captain, John McEnroe.

And now, after the young rising sensation, the 20-time Grand Slam champion’s team has added some Russian flavors by bringing Medvedev into the team. Not only that, even the world’s 4th-ranked tennis player is ready to be a part of the same team.

But do you know that both of them have won the competition before? The 27-year-old has only won it once, back in 2021. Zverev has been a part of the winning team since the first edition took place in Prague back in 2017, followed by two consecutive victories in Chicago and Geneva.

Do you know that even the Team Europe captain is quite excited to give his new team a chance and grab the 2024 title? Here is what he said about the new additions.

Borg’s thoughts on having Zverev and Medvedev on his team

While revealing this great news to the tennis fans, Borg opened up about having the Laver Cup Champions on his team. He also mentioned how he has high hopes for this year and shared his excitement to have Alcaraz, Medvedev, and Zverev as a part of his team.

He stated, “With Daniil, Sascha, and Carlos on my team, I think we have an excellent chance of making that happen. The guys have had an incredible start to the year, and this is a really strong first half of our lineup. I’m thrilled to have these champions in the fold for 2024.” Additionally, he discussed how Team World is extremely driven to win the cup in front of the home fans this time around because they have already won the prior two competitions.
