Novak Djokovic is one of the last players that arrived to London ahead of the 2022 Laver Cup that will be played in O2 Arena from September 23rd through 25th.
The 21-time Grand Slam champion will join his big rivals, 20-time Grand Slam champion Roger Federer and 22-time Grand Slam champion, Rafael Nadal. So-called Big Three will try to win another title for Team Europe that is led by Bjorn Borg and Thomas Enqvist.
Novak Djokovic arrived on Tuesday and he also managed to practice with Andy Murray who is also part of the team. The Serbian is the most recent Grand Slam champion in Team Europe as Carlos Alcaraz, who won the 2022 US Open isn't playing.
However, Rafael Nadal won the first two majors this year and Casper Ruud is a two-time finalist, so there should be no doubt about which team is the favourite this year. After his arrival, Djokovic said:
"Great to be here, exciting, full of emotional moments on and off the court, particularly for Roger. It's exciting, it's great to be here, probably once in a lifetime to be in a team along with Rafa, Roger and Andy, three of my biggest rivals," Novak Djokovic said.
