The long-awaited tennis competition Laver Cup is set for its seventh edition, which will take place this September in Berlin. Team Europe and Team World will vie for the championship title.

Following a format reminiscent of the famous ‘Ryder Cup’, the event will feature six of the finest tennis players from Europe, under the captaincy of Bjorn Borg, pitted against an equally formidable team of six players representing the rest of the world, led by the legendary John McEnroe.

Laver Cup 2024: matches, schedule

Just a reminder of how the point system functions: Each match win on day 1 is worth one point; on day 2, it’s worth two points; and on day 3, it’s worth three points. The first team to reach 13 points wins the match.
