In golf, the men's version is named after a British businessman who donated money for the tournament, while the women's version is named for a Norwegian-American businessman who did the same. In the corresponding equivalent in tennis, there is no such version for women yet, but what is the men's version named after?

Rod Laver, the legendary tennis champion. This is a reference to the Laver Cup, whose first edition was played in 2017, and features teams from Europe vs the Rest of the World. This is modeled on golf's Ryder and Solheim cups (for men and women respectively) where a European team plays an American side.
