Rested Federer is looking forward to the Laver Cup

From Friday to Sunday, eight players from Europe and the rest of the world will compete against each other in Chicago. World number five Alexander Zverev (Hamburg) will also be there again, while Wimbledon and US Open champion Novak Djokovic (Serbia) will be at the start for the first time. At the premiere in Prague in 2017, the Europeans prevailed 15:9.

“Had a good year” “I am very happy with how I feel. I took a week off after the US Open,” said world number two Federer, who completely unexpectedly failed in the round of 16 against Australian John Millman at the last Grand Slam of the year in New York, in an interview with tournament partner Mercedes.

However, this faux pas cannot cloud his personal balance. “I had a good year. Every year you win a Grand Slam is a good year,” said the maestro from Switzerland, who triumphed at the Australian Open for the sixth time in January. Federer sees Europe in the title role In Chicago, Federer sees defending European champions as favorites again. “I have a good feeling for us as a team here. I believe that Team Europe is to be assessed more strongly with me, Djokovic and Zverev,” said Federer, who, however, warned: “There are many strong-serving players in Team World, such as John Isner.”

Roger Federer also sees himself as a co-organizer. “For me this is a highlight. I invested a lot of time and energy. I also want to put a touch of myself in there,” said the 20-time Grand Slam winner and added a pious wish: “I hope that the players go home and think and wish that the Laver Cup was every week .”
