Laver Cup. It's legit.

At least that's the overarching takeaway from a super-competitive, captivating weekend of tennis featuring the top stars from Europe against those from the rest of the world.

Did we mention it was competitive? Here's how things played out:

It all came down to Zverev for Team Europe

Team Europe held on to the slimmest of margins with Alexander Zverev on the court with the chance to clinch the title against Kevin Anderson. After dropping the first set, Zverev broke his opponent in the second, then won a thrilling super-tiebreaker to seal the deal. Huzzah!

True grit: Alexander Zverev withstands the Anderson onslaught to carry #TeamEurope2018 to a second-consecutive #LaverCup title, 6-7(3) 7-5 [10-7]. pic.twitter.com/Qhu4Kiygbz - Laver Cup (@LaverCup) September 23, 2018

He can play, he can coach. He's Roger Federer

Mirka and Jelena impressed

A few parting words from John McEnroe

McEnroe finally cooled off, and after a squeaker of a loss to Team Europe, he addressed the players and the crowd.

A few parting words from Novak Djokovic

And what would this event be without the man it was named after, Rod Laver?

What a city, what a competition, what a lucky guy I am! Thank you @LaverCup, thank-you Chicago pic.twitter.com/7qyyBpCPMR - Rod Laver (@rodlaver) September 24, 2018
