Each victory bringing three points during the last day, against one on Friday and two on Saturday, Europe, which won the first four editions of the competition, will absolutely have to win the last two singles to finish ahead.
After Roger Federer's retirement on Friday, Auger-Aliassime (22) showed that the new generation was ready to take over by dominating Novak Djokovic (35) with authority 6-3, 7-6 (3).
Just before that, he had won a crucial double, associated with Jack Sock, against Andy Murray and Matteo Berrettini 2-6, 6-3, 10-8.
The Rest of the World, led by John McEnroe, find themselves in the same situation as in 2019, in Geneva, where they led 11-7 before the last two singles, won by Federer and Alexander Zverev for a final victory 13-11.
Europe, led by Bjorn Borg, have no room for error before Stefanos Tsitsipas challenges Frances Tiafoe and Casper Ruud takes on Taylor Fritz for the final game that could be decisive.
