Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray are the 4 tennis legends who will represent Team Europe during this Laver Cup. While Roger Federer’s retirement will probably be the hot topic of this entire edition, it is remarkable to see the Big4 playing together.
To make the crowd extremely happy, the organization of the event had the brilliant idea of organizing a practice session with all 4 players on the same court. That was an absolute treat. Enjoy the video.
