Taylor Fritz Stuns Carlos Alcaraz to Lead Team World at Laver Cup
Carlos Alcaraz lost his first singles match since the US Open to Taylor Fritz at the Laver Cup, ending his unbeaten streak against Fritz. Post-match, Alcaraz praised Fritz's performance, noting he was more aggressive and better on the first shots, which he attributed to the slow conditions. The defeat contributed to Team Europe's poor second day, with Team World leading 9-3, but Alcaraz has opportunities to avenge the loss in upcoming doubles and singles matches.
