Roger Federer says he's open to starting a Fedal tour with Rafa Nadal.
Would you ever start a senior tour with Rafa?
Roger, Yeah, why not. I love Rafa. I've been playing a lot so I'm trying to keep in good shape. I know that Rafa is also totally open to play some tennis. It sounds terrible, senprs tennis, to us., but maybe we can create a tour, like a Fedal tour.

Michelson v. Mensik is heating up in the 2nd set TB.

Ahh, no one seems to care! Just back from card playing to catch the end of Ruud over Opelka! Even w/o the Big 3, it seems to still lean Europe!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Team Europe lead 2-0 in Laver Cup who are the strong favorites to win in 2025
Night session about to begin
Cobollli vs Fonseca., should be an interesting match up, both players close in ATP ranking, Colbolli (#25) with 2 ATP titles, and Fonseca ( #42) with 1 ATP title.

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

Team World pick up their 1st win and point of the Laver Cup in the night session, Team Europe lead 2-1
From a break down in the 1st set Fonseca raised his game and went onto win in straight sets 64 63
Well done Fonseca! he is the youngest player to play in the Laver Cup!

 

[MargaretMcAleer]

[MargaretMcAleer]

How things can quickly change in doubles, Team World had SP great return from Team Europe Akcaraz, now have SP 7-6, Mensik bh error
Team Europe lead 8-7 in the TB, weak 1st serve and Alcaraz with a good ROS wins the 1st set 76 (7)

What’s the difference? They could wheel him out on a hospital gurney and just park him on the baseline - result would still be the same..

I know he was having a lot of lower back pain for months now, but I have to query why he didnt have the surgery before? especially since he was picked to be in the Six Kings Slam and will he be able to recover in time? I guess we shall see or not

The six gold diggers is something he shouldn’t be thinking about. He’s had a lousy season, he might be better off going away and recuperating his body in private, then recuperate his game with next season in mind..

To be fair, this isn't Wimbledon. It's just a glorified exhibition. Nothing is really at stake, well except for bragging rights.
