This will be the fourth time that Tsitsipas is playing for Team Europe in the tournament while Rublev is making his second appearance.
“I have great memories of playing Laver Cup and being part of the team, but last year was tough,” Tsitsipass, who has a 3-1 record in singles in Laver Cup, said. “I played with my heart and gave it my best, but unfortunately it didn’t go the way we wanted. Still, we move on, and we have a pretty good track record in Laver Cup so I’m optimistic for this year. I will do everything I can to help Team Europe win the title back in Vancouver.”
“I can’t wait to compete in the Laver Cup once again,” Rublev, who has a 3-0 record in the competition, said. “Being part of the winning team in Boston is a memory that will stay with me forever.”
Canada’s Felix Auger-Aliassime and Americans Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe have been confirmed for this year’s line-up of Team World, which will be captained by John McEnroe.
Team Europe won the first four editions of the Laver Cup while Team World won the Laver Cup the tournament for the first time last year.
