"Alcaraz is brutal, we hope he has not fully recovered from his vacation week"

Patrick Rafter and Andre Agassi have the mission to lead Team Rest of the World in their pursuit to conquer Laver Cup 2025, knowing that the presence of Carlos Alcaraz in Team Europe poses a significant obstacle to success. When asked how to stop the Spaniard, Rafter responded with grace and sincerity. "He is at his peak. He dominates world tennis alongside Sinner, but we know our players can surprise anyone, especially in a format like this, with two sets and a supertiebreak in the third. We must devise a game plan and carefully analyze what we can do to counter his power. He's a fierce tennis player, and we trust that he hasn't fully recovered from his vacation week," he said with a chuckle.
