They took the first, Flavio Cobolli and Jakub Mensik beating Alex de Minaur and Taylor Fritz 7-5, 6-3 in the opening doubles to move to 10-5, before Zverev finished the job in the second. Carlos Alcaraz against de Minaur and Rafael Jodar against Fritz were not played.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For Zverev, it answers his own defeat to de Minaur on Saturday afternoon, 2-6, 7-6 (7), 11-9. Europe had gone into the final day in front thanks to Alcaraz saving two match points against Fritz, 6-3, 4-6, 13-11, and to Zverev\u2019s own night doubles win alongside Casper Ruud over Alexander Bublik and Brandon Nakashima, 6-4, 7-6 (7).<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More news soon\u2026<\/p>\n<p>Final: Team Europe 13, Team World 5<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Alexander Zverev beat Learner Tien 7-6 (3), 6-3 at the O2 on Sunday to win the Laver Cup&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":907565,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[565],"tags":[64,63,85,747],"class_list":["post-907564","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tennis","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-sports","tag-tennis"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/907564","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=907564"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/907564\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/907565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=907564"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=907564"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=907564"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
