ATP Laver Cup — Alexander Zverev vs Taylor Fritz

Event: Laver Cup (Indoors)

Arrives on a high after a statement win over world No.1 Carlos Alcaraz (6–3, 6–2) on Day 2, boosting Team World’s surge.
2025 season humming: 44–17 overall, 25–9 on hard (indoors 2–1). Two titles this year and consistent week-to-week level.
Proven Laver Cup contributor in past Team World titles; trusted in late-session pressure.
H2H momentum: leads Zverev 8–5 and riding a five-match winning streak in the rivalry (Wimbledon ’24, US Open ’24, Laver Cup ’24, ATP Finals ’24, Stuttgart ’25).

Searching for spark: heavy Day-2 loss to De Minaur (1–6, 4–6) reflects recent dip.
2025 record still strong at 45–18 (hard 21–7), but form trend since grass season is uneven.
Historically reliable at Laver Cup (event-leading singles wins all-time), yet hasn’t found his top gear this week.
Scheduling note: Depending on earlier Day-3 results, this match could become the clincher, a dead rubber, or be skipped if the tie is already decided.
