Lorenzo Musetti leaves Miami with a smile despite losing to Carlos Alcaraz in the round of 16. "Ludovico gave me a nice surprise, and I received a nice surprise here at the tennis level -he admitted in the press conference. It’ s been a positive and unexpected week; I d come here with low expectations, I d only hoped to play it and then it’ s turned into the best result of the year, both in terms of result and in terms of tennis expressed".

"I am happy, this sport has taught me that things can change from one moment to the next,” he added, “now the hope è to be able to carry this Lorenzo into the coming months and the rest of the season".

On the loss to Murciano: "C’è regret for the result, the’goal è always to win, but playing against the number 1 in the seeding, a player in full confidence coming back from the Indian Wells win, obviously was not easy. It’ was a hard-fought match, Carlos had to sweat and the score is deceiving. In some situations I got in a bit of a hurry and made some bad choices, credit also to his game and physicality. It’ was a good match although you can’ do better".

“It’ the swing I am waiting for the most; è a bit’ like coming home. My first tournament on clay will be; Estoril, then in Monte Carlo I’ll have a big bill of exchange to defend but there; I feel at home and I’ve always done well in the past. Then heò Barcelona, Madrid, Rome and the Slam. Itò will be a nice touré and on clay but first I want to go back home and then start again with motivation and new stimuli" Musetti commented on his upcoming commitments.
