Laver Cup 2025: Taylor Fritz stuns Carlos Alcaraz as Team World lead Team Europe after day two

American Taylor Fritz stunned world number one Carlos Alcaraz as Team World turned things around to take a 9-3 lead on day two of the Laver Cup.

Team Europe had led 3-1 after Friday but Team World won all four matches in San Francisco on Saturday to turn the tide before Sunday’s final day.

Fritz, who had not beaten Spaniard Alcaraz in three previous meetings, sealed a comprehensive 6-3 6-2 victory in the final singles match of the day.

The world number five said it was one of the best moments of his career so far.

“I think I take almost more pride in this one because I feel like, start to finish, I won it, I earned it,” he said.

“A lot of the decisive points in the match weren’t so much him giving them to me – I felt like I made it happen in those moments. Just start to finish, I played an amazing match. I’m hoping this can be a sign of things to come.”
