British tennis player Arthur Fery is set to participate as an alternate for Team Europe at the upcoming Laver Cup, which begins this weekend. The 24-year-old, currently ranked as Britain’s No. 1, will join a roster that includes multiple Grand Slam champions Carlos Alcaraz and Alexander Zverev. The team is captained by former players Yannick Noah and Tim Henman.

Fery described the opportunity as a valuable experience, expressing enthusiasm about learning from some of the sport’s top competitors. He noted the high calibre of talent present at the event and emphasized his focus on integrating into the team environment.

Meanwhile, Italian world number one Jannik Sinner has postponed his return to competition due to a knee injury. Sinner, who won Wimbledon in July, has been sidelined since defending his title but had been expected to compete at the China Open next week. His withdrawal from the tournament marks the latest setback in his recovery process.
