Andre Agassi has been named the captain of the “World” team for the 2025 Laver Cup and beyond, taking over from John McEnroe. Agassi, a tennis legend who has won eight Grand Slam titles and one Olympic gold medal, will now lead his team against a new, yet-to-be-determined captain for Team Europe. Bjorn Borg, who has served as captain for the past seven years, is also stepping down from his role.
In a statement, Agassi expressed his excitement for the new role, highlighting the importance of understanding and managing the players’ needs throughout the year. He emphasized the significance of getting to know each player on the team in order to make strategic match selections that will give them the best chance of securing wins.
The Laver Cup, an ATP Tour event, features three players from each team based on their rankings, with an additional three players selected as “captain’s picks.” The tournament does not contribute points towards rankings, making it a unique and exciting competition for players and fans alike.
This year’s Laver Cup will take place in Berlin from 20 to 22 September, following the conclusion of the US Open. The event has garnered attention for its mix of top-ranked players, team dynamics, and intense competition, making it a must-watch for tennis enthusiasts around the world.
