On Wednesday, the second round of the 2022 Moselle Open will see third seed Lorenzo Musetti of Italy taking on Sebastian Korda of the United States.
Lorenzo Musetti’s ascent has been both abrupt and gradual. Lorenzo Musetti has been well-known to us for a time, but his real breakthrough did not occur until recently. Musetti won the biggest title of his career after defeating Carlos Alcaraz in the ATP 500 competition in Hamburg. This propelled him up the rankings and gave him his first-ever top-30 entry. The victory also gave him more self-confidence, and he performed well at the US Open but lost in the third round. He has since participated in the Davis Cup, winning a game for Italy. Simply put, Musetti is on a nice run and has the talent to succeed. Because his spear isn’t the weapon it should be, fighting indoors is challenging for him, but he can work around it.
Sebastian Korda had to play a match in Metz as an unseeded player already, but he handled it with assurance. Hugo Gaston, a native of the country, was no match for him, thus it wasn’t an easy battle. Korda is a skilled player who is accustomed to playing in enclosed spaces. If he doesn’t commit too many errors, he’s often a formidable opponent thanks to his flat enough groundstrokes and strong enough serve. Although he lost twice out of three games, Korda had faced Musetti in the past and had some success. While Musetti won on clay, the match he did win was played on indoor hard courts. That clearly shows that Korda should receive a small advantage in this situation. He has the tools to win tonight, which I can’t say for Musetti, and having played one match prior will be helpful.
Lorenzo Musetti and Sebastian Korda are scheduled to face each other in the round of 32 of the 2022 ATP Moselle Open on Wednesday, September 21. The tournament is scheduled to begin on September 19 and end on September 25.
