Laver Cup: Cobolli and Struff announced as alternates for Team Europe

For Cobolli, he has made a stratospheric rise up the rankings in the past 12 months, surging from outside the world’s top 100 to No 32 in the world currently. The 22-year-old holds a 31-24 win-loss record this season, with wins over the likes of Tommy Paul, Ben Shelton and Felix Auger-Aliassime.

Struff, currently ranked No 37, became one of the oldest-ever first time titlists on the ATP Tour this year when he won the BMW Open in Munich, beating Auger-Aliassime, Holger Rune and Taylor Fritz en route to the title.

Cobolli and Struff join six others already named in the main Team Europe squad:

• Alexander Zverev
• Carlos Alcaraz
• Daniil Medvedev
• Casper Ruud
• Grigor Dimitrov
• Stefanos Tsitsipas

Bjorn Borg will be captaining Team Europe for the last time this week, with the Swede handing over to Yannick Noah for the 2025 edition.
