Musetti takes bronze!

Musetti takes bronze!

Lorenzo Musetti has done it.

In the absence of Jannik Sinner, he fulfilled his role as headliner of the Italian delegation.

Buoyed by unshakeable confidence, the Transalpine made the most of the disappointment of his semi-final loss to Djokovic the day before to dispose of Auger-Aliassime in the match for third place (6-4, 1-6, 6-3).

Without necessarily playing his best tennis, the gifted 22-year-old used all his clay-court skills to blow away a Canadian whose game was still a little too stereotyped.

Musetti was able to read his opponent's serve very well and came out in force, breaking four times and scoring eleven break points.

Despite a loss of concentration in the second set, when he suffered the full force of his opponent's powerful shots, he rallied perfectly to win the final.

The dream is now a reality for the man who was in crisis just a few months ago, winning very few matches.

His doubts swept away, he won the bronze medal at the Olympic Games. An accolade as beautiful as it is unexpected!
