Ha! Ha! Rafa fans and Fed haters are reaching once again concerning popularity because their fans and Djokovic fans need them to be seen as on the same level of popularity as Federer. But….but…but Rafa hasn’t retired yet and those Spanish speaking countries. Oh you care about the Laver Cup, you care that Federer started the LC and neither Rafa or Djokovic could do that.
It’s embarrassing that the Laver Cup that started as an exhibition event (to make money for Fed) became part of the ATP calendar. It has to be removed from the ATP calendar, Fed worshiper.

No more embarrassing than you trying to depict Rafa as on the same level. If the LC was just a money making exhibition started by Fed, why would the ATP want it part of its calendar? Because it’s more than that. Neither Rafa or Djokovic would never push for an event that highlights someone else career: the great Rod Laver.

TTW posters have said why it's in the calendar (post #14):

TTW posters are full of ****. The event is on the ATP calendar because the ATP and Federer want an event that is viable which celebrates players from the past and present. You can’t see that because Rafa and Djokovic fans can only see gloryhunting individual stats. Hence why neither player would not think of anything close to the LC.
