In a press conference after his victory over Adrian Mannarino, Lorenzo Musetti addressed the incident with Chinese fans who booed him following his controversial remarks.

For him, despite his apologies, this reaction was predictable. He stated: "Obviously, I expected this kind of reaction from the supporters. I think that, in a way, I deserved it, which is why I made sure to personally apologize at the microphone at the end of the match.

I hope these apologies will be heard beyond social media."

Musetti will face Learner Tien this Monday for a spot in the semifinals.

Seasons best to all the regulars in our league.

Will you all be back in the new year.?

Steffi Graf completed a Golden Slam (not just a career Grand Slam) when she was 19. She is the only person to accomplish that, winning the four majors plus Olympic gold the same calendar year.
