Lorenzo Musetti and Jannik Sinner will take on each other in the quarter-finals of the 2023 ATP Barcelona Open on April 21.
Lorenzo Musetti hasn’t been in good touch lately and has been losing all the recent tournaments he has played in. He will be adamant to make a change in fortune and perform well at the ongoing Barcelona Open. He couldn’t make it past the second stage mark in any of his last tournaments, losing to Lloyd Harris at the Australian Open in what was a Five-set thriller, and also lost to Ramos-Vinolas at the Swiss Indoors. At the Paris Masters, he made it to the quarter-finals, losing to Djokovic after beating the likes of Ruud, Basilashvili, and Cilic on the way. At the Tennis Napoli Cup, his luck finally favored him as he went all the way to clinch the title beating second-seeded Berrettini in the final. In the ongoing Barcelona Open, he beat Kubler in the first-round matchup by 3-6, 1-6, and in the round-of-16 matchup, he beat Norrie by 6-3, 4-6, 1-6.
Jannik Sinner has looked like a whole different player in the last couple of tournaments and will be determined to perform well in Barcelona Open as well. At the Indian Wells Masters, he got knocked out in the semi-finals to eventual champion, Alcaraz. In the tournament before that, he lifted the trophy beating players such as Cressy, Fils, Sonego, and Fucsovics. At the Australian Open, he made it to the fourth round losing to Tsitsipas in what was a five-set thriller. At the Paris Masters, he couldn’t make it past the first stage mark, and at the Vienna Open, he lost to Medvedev in the quarter-finals after picking up crucial wins against Garin and Francisco Cerundolo. At the Rotterdam Open, he made it to the finals losing to Medvedev after beating the likes of Bonzi, Tsitsipas, Stanislas Wawrinka, and Griekspoor. In the ongoing Barcelona Open, he beat Schwartzman in the first-round matchup by 6-1, 5-7, 5-7, and in the round-of-16 matchup, he beat Nishioka by 1-6, 6-4, 3-6.
