Matteo Arnaldi is experiencing a magical moment. The Ligurian tennis player, in fact, reached the round of 16 in a Masters 1000 for the first time in his career, thanks to a two-set victory over Denis Shapovalov (6-3 7-6) at the Miami Open. "I’m happy because I’m making few mistakes and I’m solid during the matches,” he commented to the microphones of Sky Sports.  In the important moments I manage to take advantage of the opportunities that my opponents offer me".

In the round of 16 the Blue will face Czech Tomas Machac, number 60 in the world rankings: "It will be a tough match. È one of those who is playing better this year. I faced him in Dubai last year and lost sharply. Però at that time I was not well and è as if I didn’t really get into Dubai, so I don’t even consider that match".

Arnaldi also talked about Jannik Sinner, whom he could face in the quarterfinals and for whom he seems to have lost his words: "About Sinner there’è not much to say. He is having an incredible season".

Finally, Matteo also dedicated a thought to Lorenzo Musetti, who scored his first win as a papà:"I am happy for Lorenzo who got his first win as a papà. He was also undecided whether or not to participate in the tournament".
