Love love love the enthusiasm of the teams. They could just be not too serious about it but they really take it to d max n it makes us fans pumped too. Superb event. Equal amounts of fun n seriousness
Thank goodness this didn't end up being another exhibition. Cudos to the players. The effort was at least equal to what they give on tour. Now tennis has its Ryder Cup. Isner, Sock & Kyrgios were amazing. Damn near pulled it off.
I think it's really interesting that Roger, who did not watch Rafa/Isner from the couch with everyone else cause he was preparing for his match, came to meet Rafa in the hall (3:54) and console him when a Rafa was heading back to the locker room. How sweet is that? 😍
Federer & Kyrgios have had 3 great matches against each other, always so close & could've gone either way. Wish McEnroe Or Hewitt would mentor Nick to bring out his best all the time as when he's 'on' he's amazing to watch!
Felt sorry for Thiem. He played the second match of day 1 and after that didn't play a single match for the remainding 2 and a half days. I think every players should play at least twice and no more than 3 times. Jack sock and Rafa played 4 matches
This event was greater than most ATP Tournaments ! Really exciting ! Should be like World Cup. Maybe each 2 years and it would be rewarded with ATP points as well !
you can't give points to it yet because the players are chosen not based on rankings of ATP and there is the Masters at the end of the year to reward top 8 players.
Just incredible. All of the matches were so close. You could feel how much everyone wanted to win. Does anyone know if in 2018 will it be a European team against the world again or a usa team against the world? I thought they announced it'll be in Chicago.
yes,,they did europe vs world to try and make it fair and it was still extremely lopsided..but imagine if europe had roger,nadal,murray,djokovic,zverev etc etc..all the greats come from europe lol
Kenny Manning I think more than twice is a bit far fetched, considering the schedules etc but 2 times a year is perfect. Although that means we are less likely to see Rafa and Roger constantly playing in the event. That's all everyone cares about really
It only lasts a week, the crowd loved it, top players can manage to attend it instead of skipping the really long and grueling Davis Cup, top players see it as a honour to attend instead of a chore, top players enjoying and having fun, the possibility of rivals working alongside each other like Fedal, which again the crowd loved... Jim might want to revise his opinion.
After team tennis comes non-competitive tennis because winning at tennis is bullying. Sort of like those non-competitive obstacle races where they help each other instead of compete.

actually no-one finally stayed in the room to prepare the games, everyone was supporting each other was great to watch
This event was spectacular, everything about it was brilliant. Absolutely fantastic.
Best thing happen to tennis for a while
BEST TENNIS TOURNAMENT EVER
Absolutely unbelievable, fantastic and brilliant... just perfect
Definitely the best tennis weekend out of *my* year.
Loved every minute of every match! What a wonderful event to celebrate TENNIS!!! 🎾✨
Today its a day after Laver cup is over and I still got goose bumps while watching this ! Laver cup is def to stay !

Incredible event! Surpassed all expectations so well done to the thinking heads behind this..
This is a tennis fans dream. Still doesn't feel like it really happened
Hopefully the ladies can get together and have a "Margret Court Cup" like this 👍

Angels h I think the winners should all get 1000 points each
Or maybe 500
Or maybe 500

Europe vs the World again
Thanks!
If it's only USA it would be a slaughter lol

they did europe vs the world because europe is so dominant in tennis
This was a great! tournament. Wish they would do it 2-4 times a year in different cities.

Kenny Manning once a year is what makes an event special.
Love the excitement, passion and seriousness of the players though it was an exhibition event!

Sin palabras!
😍😍😍
Amazing event!
Loved it
Amazing event, the only negative I had was the court (but it looks freakin awesome). It seemed almost "too hard"
It won't replace Davis Cup.

balancer182 it only lasts a weekEND
I loved black theme
Sock Vs Nadal
Federer Vs Kyrgios
Nadal/Berdych vs Sock/Kyrgios could have gone either way. Well fought Team World
If Roger and Rafa came out of the closet as gay partners, that would be the best day ever
Not for Mirka and Federer's kids though...
Geez someone takes everything seriously -_-
Closeted gay ...hmmm... interesting 😮
