Let cord on Kyrgios, and he responds with "that was sh**" followed by "f*** the machine" and then fires the ball into the crowd. Somehow didn't get a warning.

Come on Nick, win this match tie-breaker.

Edit: Kyrgios does win, pulls Team World a little closer as Europe now leads 7-3 with a doubles match to come next featuring Fed and Rafa playing doubles.

It feels wrong cheering for Kyrgios.

Also, I rather like the aesthetic of the environment where everything is black, white or grey except for the players. Really makes them stand out.

I like what Kyrgios brings to the sport. He's very roddick in his honesty. The game needs more entertaining players like him.

Laver Cup‏@LaverCup
What a debut! @RogerFederer & @RafaelNadal claim 2 points for #TeamEurope with a 6-4 1-6 [10-5] win vs Querrey & Sock. Tennis is the winner.

Would love for them to play doubles in all the majors next year would be historic

They would get killed though. The doubles teams out there are really good.

It should have been PopSock tonight. The selection of Tiafoe is such a waste.

Ya most likely but still would love to see it. They are both gold medalist in Olympic Doubles not that it means anything but Nadal did have to beat Nestors and Pospisil to get his.

World just won the doubles. It's now 9-6.

Can they win 2 out of 3 singles to force a double decider?

Zverev vs Querrey
Nadal vs Isner
Federer vs Kyrgios

Isner takes down Rafa in straight sets to keep Team World alive. Updated score is Team Europe 12, Team World 9. Kyrgios vs. Fed next.

Kyrgios might just beat Indoorer to force the doubles decider - Up a set and back on serve in set 2. Uh oh, as I type, Nick is getting treatment.

Going to a match tie-break to determine if we need the doubles decider. Pretty darn good stuff in Prague.

In all honesty, I wanted to see the doubles decider, but congrats to Team Europe on winning the Laver Cup. Quite the rally from Team World on Sunday to make things very interesting.
