Carlos Alcaraz beat Taylor Fritz in a Laver Cup singles match decided by a 10-point tiebreak, tying Team Europe and Team World at 5-5. Both had match points in the breaker; a doubles match remained, with its winner set to end the day ahead.
Alcaraz led 5-2 in the tiebreak before Fritz fought back, turning the 10-point breaker into a back-and-forth finish.
Tennis Channel's Jim Courier said Alcaraz's maximum serve speed at last year's Laver Cup was 135 mph; this time, he served more slowly, at times in the 120s. Courier questioned whether Alcaraz was still unsure of his wrist after an injury that sidelined him for four months; the report did not establish why his serve was slower.
