French Open: Musetti Rides New-found Grit Into Third Round, Rune Advances In Five Sets
Lexus ATP Head2Head: Italian star Lorenzo Musetti passed his first test at the French Open this year on Friday as he rallied from a set and a break down to move past Mariano Navone into the fourth round and match his best result at the clay-court major. Musetti defeated Navone 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-2 to move into the Round of 16.
The eighth-seeded Italian trailed Navone 4-6, 0-2 but fought back brilliantly to beat the Argentine, who has reached tour-level finals on clay in Rio de Janeiro and Bucharest.
However, this season, the 23-year-old Musetti is playing with a newfound grit and resilience. The 2024 Olympic bronze medallist started to find his range off the backhand wing and used his slice and heavy forehand to force Navone out of his comfort zone and turn the tables in hot conditions.
