Anderson brings world back after beating Europe’s best

Chicago
Kevin Anderson took down Novak Djokovic for a second straight night as Team World rallied to win the final two matches and reel Team Europe’s lead back to 7-5 after the second day of the Laver Cup on Saturday.

South African Anderson led the charge by blasting 17 aces past the Serbian world No. 3 in a 7-6(5) 5-7 10-6 victory that shifted the momentum after the World side had lost the opening two matches of the day to fall 7-1 behind.
“We’ve had some really close matches that haven’t gone our way and I really wanted to put us back in there,” Anderson, who lost the Wimbledon final to Djokovic, said. “It’s not easy playing one of the best players of all time, but what an amazing atmosphere. I felt I played a great match.”

It was another disappointing night for Djokovic, who teamed up with Roger Federer on Friday when the duo suffered a shock doubles loss to Anderson and Jack Sock.
The 14-time Major champion again faltered in a third set, firing a forehand into the net to seal the loss.

“Unfortunately, two lost matches,” Djokovic said. “I gave it my best to beat Kevin. He was playing fantastic.”
