For the first time, the event will be held on the US West Coast, as the tournament will take place at the Chase Center in San Francisco.Before Frances Tiafoe's replacement, Ben Shelton and Tommy Paul also pulled out of Laver CupFrances Tiafoe's withdrawal from the 2025 Laver Cup followed several other changes in the Team World roster led by captain Andre Agassi and vice-captain Pat Rafter. Earlier, World No. 6 Ben Shelton and No. 16 Tommy Paul also pulled out.Shelton hurt his left shoulder, which forced him to retire in the third round match at the 2025 US Open. For Paul, the reason was pretty much similar as he has struggled with recurring injuries throughout the season.They were replaced by Alex Michelsen and Reilly Opelka. The loss of both American stars and their subsequent replacements has left several tennis fans disheartened.
