Félix Auger-Aliassime will look to help Team World defend its Laver Cup title when the tournament comes to Canada this fall.
The 22-year-old from Montreal became the first player named to captain John McEnroe’s six-man team Thursday.
Last year, he helped Team World down Team Europe in London to capture its first win in the annual tournament.
Auger-Aliassime is currently ranked No. 7 in the world, and is coming off a 2022 campaign where he won his first four career ATP Tour titles and helped Canada to its first Davis Cup victory.
