Laver Cup 2022
About
Laver Cup, named after Australian professional tennis player Rod Laver, is an annual international indoor hardcourt tennis tournament. The tournament is played as teams between the players of Europe and the Rest of the World. It is played since 2017 and normally takes place two weeks after the completion of the US Open.
Each team is played under the leadership of a captain and the team consists of six players. Six top players from team Europe will be played against the top six world players. Based on their ATP singles rankings, three of the six competitors are eligible as following the French Open in June.
The tournament takes place for three days, and the first team to claim 13 points wins the Cup. The Laver Cup was granted full ATP Tour status in May 2019.
Venues and Dates
The 2022 Laver Cup takes place at The O2 Arena in London. Up to 20,000 spectators can attend major athletic events and concerts by the biggest stars in the world at the arena.
Laver Cup 2022 is scheduled to kickstart from 23 September to 25 September.
Points Distribution and Prize Money
The grand tournament does not give extra credit points to the ranking list as there will be only limited selective players participating and it will be an unfair risk to count points. The winning team will grab an amount of $250,000 USD for their homes.
