Musetti makes first ATP 1000 final

Despite losing the first set 1-6, Italian Lorenzo Musetti reached his first Masters 1000 Final by rallying to beat Alex de Minaur in three sets.

In wet conditions at the Monte Carlo Country Club the 23 year old took  the second set 6-4 and clinched victory by winning the third set tiebeak 7-4.

Afterwards  Musetti  said “I always struggle to start and find a rhythm but today Alex was playing really solid and the conditions were hard. It was slow today with the rain and it was not easy to break through the Alex wall. I started to be more patient and that was the key,”

Musetti now leads De Minaur 2-1 in the Lexus head to head series
