Fritz Dominates Musetti to Open ATP Finals Campaign with Convincing Win

Posted : 10 November 2025

Last year’s runner-up Taylor Fritz began his ATP Finals campaign in style, defeating Italy’s Lorenzo Musetti 6-3, 6-4 in a commanding performance at the Inalpi Arena in Turin on Monday.

Musetti, who replaced Novak Djokovic following the seven-time champion’s late withdrawal, made a lively start but faded as the match wore on despite strong home support. Fritz quickly took control once his powerful serve began to click.

The pivotal moment came in the third game of the opening set when Fritz fended off four break points — firing down two aces — before immediately breaking Musetti to lead 3-1. From there, the American never looked back, keeping the Italian under constant pressure on serve.

Musetti, coming off a gruelling three-hour final loss to Djokovic in Athens on Saturday, fought hard early in the second set but handed Fritz a crucial break with a pair of double faults. The world No. 10 then relied on his dominant serve, producing nine aces and closing out the match with two more when Musetti threatened a late comeback.

The win puts Fritz in a strong position in the Jimmy Connors Group, where top seed Carlos Alcaraz opened his campaign on Sunday with a 7-6(5), 6-2 victory over Alex de Minaur. Each of the four players in the group will play one another, with the top two advancing to the semifinals.

Home fans will have more to cheer for later on Monday as defending champion Jannik Sinner begins his title defence against Felix Auger-Aliassime in the Bjorn Borg Group.
