Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic are playing doubles in the night match on Friday, against Jack Sock and Kevin Anderson.
Watching on the DVR right now.
Last year, Federer and Nadal teamed up in doubles. They lost a set 6 - 1, lol.

I had thought about going to one of the weekend days, earlier in the year.
I only wanted to go if a certain other friend went, though.

Before John McEnroe was introduced, the PA said "You can't be serious, Chicago."

On the changeover, Djokovic said, "that's why we don't play doubles." |

I saw that, lol.
They still did pretty well as partners, even if they lost in the 10 point tiebreak in the 3rd set.

I'm watching Sunday's matches on the DVR.
They started out with Sock / Isner vs. FED / Alexander Zverev.
Sock has played in all 3 doubles matches (with Kevin Anderson on Friday, and Krygios on Saturday).
FED and Zverev are hitting great returns.
They get the early break on a spectacular lob by Zverev, to go up 2 - 1.
This is the first match of the day (Sunday)!
Team World is currently down 5 - 7 to Team Europe.
Team World has never had a lead, between last year and this year.

Ever since they announced that it would be in Chicago this year, I thought about going.
I thought I would go to the Cubs @ White Sox game one day, and the Laver Cup another day.
It would only be my 2nd time to Chicago. It would be cool to see the Guaranteed Rate field. Wiki says it's also called the G-Spot. This G-Spot must be easier to find.
Looking at the format, it seems really fun to have gone to the final day of the Laver Cup.
I doubt the Laver Cup will be in the USA next year.
I was kind of burned out after having gone to a lot of sports in 2016. Maybe I should have had more resolve and gone to the Laver Cup in 2018, because I don't know when it will be in the USA next.
It's really fun seeing Sock and Isner play doubles, and course also FED in any format.

In hindsight, even if he didn't go, I still should have gone.
