However, the American pointed out that he was not fully aware of the intricacies of the tournament and would have to “learn a bit more” before committing to anything.
Named after Australian tennis legend Rod Laver, the Laver Cup was the brainchild of Roger Federer and his management company Team 8. The tournament follows a points-based format unlike other ATP events and is contested between Team World and Team Europe. While Bjorn Borg leads Team Europe, John McEnroe is the captain of Team World. Team Europe have won all four editions of the Laver Cup so far.
Andy Roddick retired long before the competition was created, but he was spotted in the stands along with good friend and 20-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer last year.
