Wimbledon, Lorenzo Musetti in pieces: "I’m like a zombie"

It&#8217s one of the many excellent eliminations in the first round of the Wimbledon tournament: Lorenzo Musetti in a press conference explained the background of his baffling knockout against Georgian Nikoloz Basilashvili, who folded in four sets the semifinalist of last year&#8217s edition of the London tournament.

“So sorry that I came here and felt sick, not with my leg but some kind of intestinal virus– revealed Musetti -The first part of the week had also gone well, then I felt drained and this sense of fatigue and exhaustion I carried with me even today”.

“After I lost the third my world fell apart a little bit and I started to feel even more fatigue, the fact that I was a zombie on the court. Maybe by taking me 2 sets to 1, maybe he could suffer it mentally and leave me a bigger window. I don”t see how with this physical form I could have gone any further”.

Musetti claimed to have recovered from the&#8217 injury sustained at Roland Garros: “Until the injury healed I was advised against loading up on it. I took as much time as I needed, in fact trying to sensibly shorten the rehabilitation course. I knew I was coming in pulled because the timeline was three weeks. I arrived doing two and a half, feeling good, then there was another relapse in the middle of the week…” are the words reported by Tennisitaliano.
