Europe began the final day with a 9-3 lead, but, after a win in the opening two matches on Sunday, John Isner beat Rafael Nadal 7-5 7-6 (7-1) to cut the advantage to 12-9.
Finally, Team Europe beat Team World 15-9 to win the inaugural Laver Cup in Prague
Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal played as doubles partners for the first time on the second day of the inaugural Laver Cup in Prague.
Swiss Federer and Spaniard Nadal, who have won a combined 35 Grand Slam titles, are part of a Europe side playing a World team over three days.
They beat Americans Sam Querrey and Jack Sock 6-4 1-6 10-5 to give Team Europe a 9-3 lead.
It`s great to see those two players playing together, I think that they are great friends despite to rivalry that they had through whole carer. For example, Sampras and Agasi had totally different relationship, as I recall they did not like each other very much...Swiss Federer and Spaniard Nadal, who have won a combined 35 Grand Slam titles, are part of a Europe side playing a World team over three days.
They beat Americans Sam Querrey and Jack Sock 6-4 1-6 10-5 to give Team Europe a 9-3 lead.
Team Europa win this event with 15-9 in score. Federer and Kirgios played last match and what a match that was... spectacle for the end.
This was practically duel between team Europe and team America plus Kirgios but it doesn't mater, we watched great matches, great show that was
Not only we got to see great matches , we also got to see the great friendship of Nadal and Federer For the first time I could support both of them together .It has been a spectacular and fun tournament, amazing to see Federer and Nadal playing together, especially for them 2 who seemed to be out of the game a year ago and have proven to be always the best in this sport.
This tournament can become a very interesting tournament, such as the Ryder Cup in golf, although European players (Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, Murray, A.Zverev,Thiem) are much stronger than the rest of the World
All the dominant players like "The big four " and Wawrinka , Dimitrov are in team Europe itself I would like to see Nishikori , Raonic , Del potro play in next Laver cup , it will certainly make things interesting .

The two great players are playing together is there anything else can replace this for me No. nothing will give us this much entertainment. for me both are fantastic players and both are in outstanding form. Yes they were out of the form last year, but this year they have proven they are still fit and they can able to rule this tennis world a couple of years. Look at all tops players names we are seeing in the European team.

Waiting eagerly for Roger / Nadal doubles .

Here's the draw of Davis Cup 2018 (World Group):
France vs Holland
Japan vs Italy
Spain vs Great Britain
Australia vs Germany
Kazakhistan vs Switzerland
Croatia vs Canada
Serbia vs Usa
Belgium vs Hungary
the most interesting matches are Australia vs Germany and Spain vs Great Britain (especially if there will be Nadal and Murray)
If I may add, Croatia vs Canada and Serbia vs USA can also be interesting duels. Cilic and Borna against Raonic and Shapovalov, it smells on 5 game duel, Double could decide who is going in next round. Even if Djokovic plays for Serbia it doesn`t mean that they will have advantage, Troicki, Lajovic and Tipsarevic can have a difficult task to win against USA team (Querrey, Isner, Sock, Young). Double match can also be crucial for those two teams. France vs Holland
Japan vs Italy
Spain vs Great Britain
Australia vs Germany
Kazakhistan vs Switzerland
Croatia vs Canada
Serbia vs Usa
Belgium vs Hungary
the most interesting matches are Australia vs Germany and Spain vs Great Britain (especially if there will be Nadal and Murray)
ATP 250 - St . Petersburg Open , Dzumhur v Broady .
Broady trailing right now but I think he can break back or take the second set so going for over 19.5 games @ 1.9 .

Yuki Bambri played well in third and fourth set but it wasn't enough against Shapovalov I guess Indians have upper-hand in doubles as they have experienced players so I think its India who passes on to next round because I believe Bambri will win his next match.

Yeah, that's quite predictable since both Đoković and Murray announced that they are missing rest of 2016.
I am pretty sure nobody else other than Djoker / Roger can overtake Nadal for the next 15 months because all others lacks consistency and Murray cant win multiple GS per year .On the contrary, I did if ever both Murray and Djokovic returns next year. Either one of them will try to reclaim the no. 1 spot. Both of them experienced disastrous year that the only thing their mind is thinking now, is how to get back and play tennis again and become no. 1. So its gonna be exciting tennis year long for next year and I'm expecting better tennis from Murray and Djokovic if they are healthy.
The chances are very less because Federer is in good form and Nadal also. if these two players maintain there form means, it will be tough for Djokovic and Murray to come back, but they can try. Who knows next year again these two players come to good form means it will be a big fight for the first position. Tough task lets see how they will take this defeat and come back next year. I want to see Djokovic in top 4 may be this is possible.
Both Federer and Nadal is already veteran and one downside I'm seeing is that the age factor. Although they are really taking care of themselves but we can't take away the possibility of a injury. But if both of them are still healthy and going strong and Andy Murray and Djokovic come back next year even stronger then there will be a big fight at the top.
