Victory in the worship of the blue against the former top 10: now for Lorenzo VE derby with the Roman who beat Brooksby on the fifth
Lorenzo Musetti is not wrong against David Goffin and flies to the third round of the US Open. A game substantially dominated by the Tuscan, series head number 10, a 6-4 6-0 6-2 in 2 hours and 3 minutes which certifies a clear superiority by the blue. The greatest concerns about the carrarrino have almost all arrived in the first game at the opening of the match, where the service a little shake, not very effective, but Lorenzo was good at resisting, making the most of his covered reverse, which worked really well for the whole meeting. Goffin, a former Top Ten too long ago, almost 35 years old, practically surrendered at the end of the first set, raising white flag in the second and with a small jolt in the third, where he had gone on to a break.
Top 10 and Dream Finals
–
This for Musetti is a heavy victory especially for the ranking, both the official one and for the race in Turin. The top 10, given the disasters of his opponents, at the end of New York seems enough to reach. At this moment in the live ranking Lorenzo is ninth, with 3205 points, with De Minaur, tenth, to a handful of points, but his other more direct competitors still in the race, such as Tommy Paul or Andrey Rublev, are almost 800 points away, so they should make a great US Open to be able to climb over Lorenzo. As for the Race for the Finals of Turin, at this moment Lorenzo is ninth, detached from only 25 points from De Minaur, eighth and current last qualified, but going on, he could fall over by climbing over Jack Draper, who retired from New York due to the arm problems, only 220 points distant.
The derby with Flavio

The Musetti scoreboard, in Fllushing Meadows, does not seem impossible, with matches all within its reach, up to the hypothetical quarter -finals against Jannik Sinner. In the third round, the derby against Cobolli awaits him who won a battle of over four hours against the American Brooksby, passed at the Super Tie break: “We have always known each other, we have shared many experiences and often we have divided the room in the hotel during the tournaments -recalls Museo -. The first time we met was at the Lemon Bowl Under 10, in the quarterfinals at his home, in Rome. I also won the tournament. From there we have often traveled together, sharing junior tournaments, Davis Juniores cup, gatherings and manifestations.
