Canada's Felix Auger-Aliassime added a singles victory over Novak Djokovic to an earlier win in doubles Sunday, allowing Team World to take a 10-8 lead over Team Europe with two matches remaining in the Laver Cup.
Auger-Aliassime, a 22-year-old from Montreal, beat 21-time Grand Slam champion Djokovic 6-3, 7-6 (3) with the help of 13 aces and a 39-11 advantage in total winners.
That followed the three-day event's last doubles contest, in which Auger-Aliassime and American Jack Sock came back to beat Andy Murray and Matteo Berrettini 2-6, 6-3, 10-8.
Murray, who owns three Grand Slam titles, was treated by a trainer after cutting his right leg during the loss.
"It was a bit weird in the first game (against Djokovic), but then after, I felt very good, very loose," said Auger-Aliassime, whose best run at a major tournament came at the U.S. Open last year, when he reached the semifinals. "Getting that (doubles) win got me really confident going into the singles."
Victories were worth three points apiece Sunday; the first team to 13 wins.

Djokovic won matches in both singles and doubles on Saturday in his first action since claiming the title at Wimbledon in July.
He helped Team Europe head into Sunday with an 8-4 lead.
