Zverev, Federer lead team to Laver Cup win

Alexander Zverev beat Kevin Anderson on Sunday night in Chicago to give Team Europe a victory in the second Laver Cup. Zverev won the final five points to defeat Anderson 6-7, 7-5, (10-7). Team Europe beat Team World 13-8. Roger Federer earlier put Team Europe ahead by saving three match points for a 6-7, 7-6 (10-7) victory over John Isner. Isner staggered Federer with a body serve that caused the 20-time Grand Slam winner to stumble early in the match. But Federer regrouped. In the opening doubles match, Jack Sock and Isner saved two match points to beat Federer and Zverev 4-6, 7-6, (11-9). Team Europe won the first Laver Cup last year in Prague.
