It will - so one can probably assume - be a unique event in the history of tennis: The "Big 4" Novak Djokovic, Roger Federer, Andy Murray and Rafael Nadal will, as previously reported, together at the Laver Cup Open for Team Europe at the end of September. From September 23rd to 25th, the top-class show tournament will take place on the 02 Arena stage in London.
During the "Media Day" of the US Open, Rafael Nadal showed the great joy of being on the tennis court with his Swiss buddy soon: "We're looking forward to seeing him back on the court. I hope he's doing well enough, to be able to play. It's been a long time since we last saw him, so I hope he can come back."
A prerequisite for the return of the 20-time Grand Slam champion is of course unrestricted fitness: "The most important thing is that he is healthy and happy. If so, his return to the tour is impressive news. We can even Roger I can't thank him enough for what he's done for the sport. I'm sure we'll have him with us for a little longer and I can't wait to be on a team with him."
