Laver Cup to return to London in 2026
London will host the Laver Cup tournament in 2026.
The Laver Cup is an annual three-day competition between Team Europe and Team World, named after Australian legend Rod Laver.
The 2022 edition - where Roger Federer brought his career to an emotional end alongside long-time rivals Rafael Nadal, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray - was held at London's O2 Arena.
The 2026 edition will take place from 25-27 September.
Federer, a 20-time major winner and co-founder of the tournament, said he was "looking forward to returning to such a meaningful place, this time as a fan".

"London set a new benchmark in 2022, delivering one of the most successful and emotional editions of the event to date," said Laver Cup chairman Tony Godsick.
"While we've traditionally taken the Laver Cup to new cities around the world each year, the response from London – from fans, partners and players – was truly overwhelming."
Since the inaugural Laver Cup in Prague in 2017, the competition has been held in Chicago, Geneva, Boston, London, Vancouver and Berlin.
The 2025 tournament will take place at the Chase Center in San Francisco from 19-21 September.
Team Europe lead the tournament record 5-2.

RBC Canadian Open: Ryan Fox Bests Sam Burns in Pillow-Fight Playoff
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The PGA Tour is north of the border this week for the RBC Canadian Open at TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley (North Course). In what turned into a thrilling finish, Ryan Fox bested Sam Burns in a four-hole playoff. For much of the final round on Sunday, it appeared as though any of 10 different golfers had chance to win. But Burns played phenomenal golf, posting the lowest final round score of his PGA Tour career with a 62 (8-under, course plays par-70). He blew past the leaders, scorching the back nine in 29 strokes. Burns sat in the clubhouse with a two-shot lead, but tons of players were still out on the course.

(Photo by) MoreHe was forced to wait for over an hour. The likes of Cameron Young, Kevin Yu, and Matt McCarty were unable to reach Burns' 18-under. But Fox showed some incredible moxy and ultimately drained a 15-foot birdie putt on his 72nd hole to force a playoff. Both players headed to the 18th tee to determine a winner. The same par-5 18th that both players birdied Sunday. But during the first playoff hole, neither player could replicate that feat. Although, Burns missed a winning birdie putt from inside six feet. DRAMA in Canada! Sam Burns misses the chance to claim victory and we're headed to another playoff hole 😯 — Golf on CBS ⛳ (@GolfonCBS) June 8, 2025 That sent both players back to the 18th tee for the third time Sunday. Once again, both players found themselves staring at birdie putts. This time, it was Fox with a great look at victory. Yet, somehow the Kiwi shockingly left his 11-foot birdie putt nearly a foot short of the hole. The poor putt left CBS announcer Trevor Immelman in disbelief. "How on Earth can you leave that a foot short," Immelman said. That prompted tournament organizers to change hole locations on 18, in hopes of finding a victor. Unfortunately, that did not work. Both players once again laid up and were each lucky to even par the hole. CBS Announcer Jim Nantz would reference their playoff as a "pillow fight," which was cemented online.

Instead of laying up, which both players had done each of the previous playoff holes, the Australian went for it. It turned out to be his best decision of the day. Fox smoked it, cleared the water and left himself just over five feet for eagle. Meanwhile, Burns, now also forced to go for it, pulled his approach wayward left on the green. He blew his lengthy eagle putt well past the hole, taking the pressure off of Fox, who two-putted from six feet to win. It is Fox's second career PGA Tour win of his career and of the season. Fox previously won the Alternate Field Myrtle Beach Classic last month. More Golf: Rory McIlroy Has Strong Statement to PGA Tour Career Worst Finish

Stampeders down Tiger-Cats 38-26 in Calgary debut for quarterback Vernon Adams Jr.
CALGARY - Dedrick Mills scored three rushing touchdowns for the Calgary Stampeders in a 38-26 win over the visiting Hamilton Tiger-Cats on Saturday. Quarterback Vernon Adams Jr. completed 19 of 28 pass attempts for 284 yards in his Stampeder debut while also rushing for 33 yards on three carries. He was intercepted twice in the second quarter. His backup P.J. Walker contributed a short-yardage touchdown and Rene Paredes kicked field goals from 42, 29 and 38 yards in front of an announced 18,682 on a breezy, hazy evening at McMahon Stadium. Mills rushed for 94 yards on 17 carries in the game. Kenny Lawler and Isiah Wooden scored Hamilton's touchdowns, while Marc Liegghio booted field goals from 47, 37 and 25 yards in the CFL season-opener for both clubs. The Tiger-Cats haven't won their first game of the season since 2019, while the Stampeders improved to 3-3 in their last six openers. Ticats quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell completed 31 of 50 passes for 304 yards and a touchdown throw in an interception-free start. Hamilton turned the ball over on downs three times in the game. The Stampeders scored a pivotal touchdown to start the second half when Paredes' kickoff hung in the wind. Calgary's Jeshrun Antwi got a hand on the football and teammate Kelon Thomas recovered at Hamilton's 13-yard line. After Mills ran the ball to the one, Walker scored and Paredes' convert gave Calgary a 25-10 lead. Paredes added a 29-yard field goal, while Hamilton got an 80-yard punt single from Nik Constantinou late in the third quarter. Adams scrambled out of the pocket to connect with Clark Barnes on a 65-yard passing play to end the quarter. Mills started the fourth with a five-yard dash to score, but Hamilton's Wooden returned the subsequent kickoff 105 yards for the visitors' first touchdown of the game to trail 35-18. Mitchell got the offence moving midway through the fourth quarter, but the Tiger-Cats turned the ball over on downs on third and two at Calgary's seven-yard line. Hamilton's Mario Kendricks salvaged a two-point safety, however, by sacking Adams in the end zone on Calgary's next drive. Lawler scored his first touchdown as a Tiger-Cat with a 19-yard catch and run with two-and-a-half minutes remaining on the clock. Calgary defensive back Tyler Richardson denied Hamilton's attempted two-point convert by tackling Ante Milanovic-Litre. The Tiger-Cats failed the subsequent onside-kick recovery attempt. Paredes' 38-yard field goal had the hosts up 38-26 with just over two minutes to play. Calgary led 18-9 at halftime. Mills generated his second major of the game with 11 seconds left, followed by a Paredes convert. The Tiger-Cats had turned the ball over on downs with under a minute to go in the half. Mills punched the ball in from the three-yard line five plays and 38 yards later. Calgary's 75-yard single by new Australian punter Fraser Masin with a minute left in the half gave the hosts an 11-9 lead. A Mills' 24-yard carry had Calgary threatening, but Adams was intercepted a second time in the second quarter half with Jonathan Moxey getting Hamilton the ball. The Ticats converted that turnover into a 37-yard Liegghio field goal to trail by a point. Calgary led 10-3 after the opening quarter. The Stampeders scored on the game's first possession with Adams marching the offence 85 yards on nine plays for Mills to cap with a one-yard dart into the end zone. Hamilton countered with Liegghio's 47-yard field goal on the Tiger-Cats' first drive of the game. Mitchell reached 11th all-time in passing yardage in the CFL on that drive to get to 39,047 yards, with 32,541 of those produced as a Stampeder between 2012 and 2022. Calgary's Paredes responded from 42-yards later in the first quarter, while Liegghio was good from 25 yards to start the second. UP NEXT Stampeders: Visit the Toronto Argonauts next Saturday. Tiger-Cats: Host the Saskatchewan Roughriders next Saturday. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 7, 2025. Error! Sorry, there was an error processing your request.
