Musetti, currently number 120 in the world, beat Diego Schwartzman, who was seeded on three, 6: 3, 2: 6 and 6: 4 - even if he had to tremble again in the end. At 5: 1 and 0:40 from Schwartzman's point of view, Musetti already had three match points, in the end he turned his sixth into his first top 10 win. "A lot of work, a lot of hardship and I think a few tears in my eyes," said Musetti after his biggest win.

Musetti made headlines for the first time last year at the Masters tournament in Rome, when he won against Stan Wawrinka and Kei Nishikori in the main draw after qualifying. Later he reached the semifinals at the ATP tournament in Sardinia.

Everyone has a bat and there is a network. You always have a 50/50 chance, "said Musetti on Monday after qualifying ." That's my mindset, I try to approach it mentally. "
