Italy's 8th seed, Musetti

"The third set is undoubtedly the key to victory!" The 23-year-old Musetti said bluntly after the game that it was very windy and it was not easy to control the landing point of the ball, and he was in a stalemate with the difficult 15th seed Tiafoe all the way to the end of the set before seizing the opportunity to break through and regain a 2-1 lead in the set, "We played very intensely, and it was not easy to break through the service game. I was a little tired and it was hard to keep going, but I was able to find the extra energy to grab the third set and get the best performance of the game in the fourth set. ”

American good hand Tiafoe

Musetti hit 8 aces in this game, with a first-serve scoring rate of 81%, and this year's clay record is 19-3, which is also the type of male star who became a father last year, and has reached the semi-finals of a Grand Slam since Wimbledon in 2024. On the other hand, Tiafoe had 51 unforced mistakes, struggled to catch up, and stopped in the top 8 with regrets, and also formed a 3-3 career matchup.
