LONDON—On Wednesday evening, this year's Laver Cup competitors (sans Rafael Nadal, who made it Thursday morning) arrived via boat for the "iconic" photo in London.

Staged along the River Thames with Tower Bridge serving as the backdrop, Team Europe and Team World took separate team photos before coming together for a large group gathering. Afterwards, players fielded questions from broadcast and radio media members.

A behind-the-scenes look at the outing:
