“Sinner and Musetti Face Off in Highly Anticipated Monte Carlo Derby”

MONTECARLO (Principality of Monaco) – A highly anticipated derby, also because it was unexpected. In the quarterfinals of the ATP in Montecarlo it will be Sinner against Musetti, with a place in the semifinals up for grabs. The number eight in the world beat Hurkacz in the round of 16, after canceling a match point in the second set, while the Tuscan tennis player gave himself a true dream, defeating Novak Djokovic in the third set at the end of an epic comeback. The only official precedent between Jannik Sinner and Lorenzo Musetti dates back to the semifinal of the 2021 Antwerp tournament: the winner was the South Tyrolean – with a score of 7-6, 6-2 – who then prevailed in the final against Schwartzman (already eliminated in this tournament).
