New York – A Streaking Lorenzo Masetti Flicked a strong blow to the line line and stopped to see his work.
The yellow ball dripped inside the initial base as a spray of yellow paint on a blue canvas at the Louis Armstrong Stadium.
In a collision of artist vs Annihilator, a creative massett carved in crusher Giovanni Mpeshi Pericard 6-7 (3), 6-3, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4 to advance in the second round of Open, USA.
Tripha’s fourth journey of Masetti in the second round of Flushing Meadows and his ninth consecutive victory over a one -handed player.
Metsshi Perricard’s Wonderful owns that other mass server Nick Kyrgios the most compelling service in this sport is called.
Today, Masetti coincided with the output of Metshi Perricard (13), gained a slightly higher percentage of the first points, dominated in his second service, earning 28 out of 32 points of the second (88 percent), and did not face a single resting point in a two-hour secure triumph, 32-min.
“I really showed what I can do mentally,” Musetti said. “I went up to the plan and am really, really happy with this victory.”

It was Musetti’s third victory over Metshi Perricard in as many meetings after his 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 triumph in the 2024 Wimbledon of 16 saw the Italians better in SW19 semifinals.
This is the first time in the history of the open era two Italian men – Musetti and champion defender Jannik sinful– There are 10 main seeds in open SH.BA.
While a ruthless sinner was being torn apart Year Kopriva of year At the adjacent stadium Arthur Ashe, Musetti was making a spell shot in Armstrong.
Both sinners and Musetti are part of an Italian rebirth that has come to the states of the last few weeks. Following Jasmine Paolini’s candidacy in the Cincinnati final, her double-playing partner Sara Errani and Andrea Vavassori successfully defended their double mixed championship in the US Open, winning the $ 1 million champions in the re-impaired double-week event last week.
The 10th Musett 10th said that Davis Sinner’s Cup teammate is an inspiration that takes the place he hopes to reach one day.
“First of all thank you to all the Italians here for supporting me today,” Masetti said. “I know a great (Italian) community here in New York and I appreciate all the support I receive every day.
“Italian tennis is now living his best period and I am really grateful to be a part of it. Being 10 ball was probably the biggest dream I had in my childhood and I was fighting every day to achieve that dream. I hope I can achieve another dream to become no. 1 in the world.”
The meaning of that dream will demand that Masetti play a slightly more offensive tennis on the fastest surface like these strong meadow courts.
Metshi Perricard is not the type of server that facilitates his way to the match. He was bombarding 139 MPH rockets from the first match today.
The sound of the French Ballistic Service when it crashes into the tape remembers a sledgehammer by hitting the railway of a train trail – you are almost surprised that it does not knock the whole net when it happens.
World no. 37 Metshi Perricard discharged some large prefaces that won the mini holiday at 4-2 in Tiebreaker, then drawing a couple of first shortages to get the opening in 43 minutes.
Mosett is a great volume – he showed that in the US Open Mixed Doubles Partnership American Caty Mcnally – and showed ignition of his net skills today.
Dropping by the court, Masetti withdrew a high Edberg-Esque high jump winner. This excellent shot, which preceded a double fault and a MPTSHI Perricard Backhand Miss Miss, helped the Italian win their first holiday for 3-1 57 minutes in the match.
A second of the ACE Down The T service helped Musetti support the holiday for 4-1.
It requires heavy rotation to rotate the ball on the considerable shoulders of the Frenchman 6’8 ”, but Masetti made exactly that point of profit to grab the second set after 72 minutes of play.
A big difference in this rivalry is the ability of Musetti that evokes the run – and the fact that he does not overdo it with returning just trying to meet the rocket and redirect it in the game. Although Mpetshi Perricard rescued two resting points to start the third set, he coughed a pair of double mistakes, including one of the wide tapes, to donate the third set rest and a 4-3 lead in the Musetti.
Moving his service around the box, Musetti won eight of his last nine points of service in that third set for one two groups in one hour after one hour, 49 minutes.
The appearance of the Frenchman is a scary shot, but he sprayed a long fall to follow 2-3 in the fourth set.
Masetti whipped a bright volleyball punished by holding the break to support the rest for 4-2 and never looked back in a two-hour triumph, 32-minute.
Muse man does not have to seek much away from the competition of compatriots. Masetti resides in the same quarter of the equation along with the high seed sinner and the 24th dangerous Flavio Cobolli, who is going from Wimbledon’s quarterfinals and served for the Toronto quarterfinals before bending to Ben Shelton in a tense tensioned tiebreaker.
How far can Masetti go?
Well, if he serves fiercely as he did today, a second week trip is not in question, but it will not be easy.
Next for Musetti is either Frenchman Quentin Hays or David Goffin, who defeated Carlos Alcaraz in Miami in March, with the winner facing either Cobolli or American Janns Brooksby in the third round.
