Lorenzo Musetti tips his hat: “Never seen a Nole Djokovic like this.”
The defeat hurts, but the belief in one’s own means remains intact.
Lorenzo Musetti is stopped in the semifinals at Wimbledon 2024, defeated in three sets by Novak Djokovic, who in the last act of the tournament played on London's grass will face Carlos Alcaraz in a replay of the final from a year ago. Nole handed a 6-4, 7-6(2), 6-4 victory to the Tuscan tennis player, who, however, at the end of the match, was anything but saddened by the way things went on the court.
"I also told his team in the locker room. The one today è the best Nole I have ever seen,” Musetti commented in the heat. “I had faced Djokovic already six times, this was the seventh. But he had never been like this; he played a really incredible match. Obviously I am disappointed that I did not win, he però è was fantastic. I, on the other hand, learned a lot and now I know I can play against anybody. But it will getò better".
"I had never played against Djokovic on grass, and he really impressed me,” Musetti continued.
It seems to me that his style of play suits this surface perfectly, especially in response. She put up some incredible points. I built some break chances, but he on serve è was always phenomenal. He deserves this win".
Finally, Musetti è dwelt on the words of Djokovic, who was uncertain until a few days ago even whether he could participate in Wimbledon 2024. "I never prepared the match against him thinking that he had physical problems. Maybe in the first matches he didn't show his best tennis, but I got the idea that he was simply trying to figure out how he was", concluded the azure.
