Lorenzo Musetti Targets ATP Finals in Turin After Breakthrough 2025 Season with Historic Runs at Roland-Garros and US Open
Lorenzo Musetti Sets Sights on ATP Finals in Turin
Lorenzo Musetti has enjoyed one of the most successful years of his career in 2025, climbing into the world’s Top 10 and pushing for a place in the Nitto ATP Finals in Turin. The 23-year-old Italian is currently ranked eighth in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin and knows that a few more strong performances this season could secure his debut at the year-end event on home soil.
Musetti himself has described playing in Turin as “a dream,” emphasizing how much it would mean to compete in front of an Italian crowd in such a prestigious tournament.
Clay-Court Brilliance: Musetti’s Runs at Monte-Carlo, Madrid, Rome and Roland-Garros
The 2025 clay season has been the foundation of Musetti’s surge up the rankings. His results include:
-
Monte-Carlo Masters Finalist – fell to Carlos Alcaraz in a hard-fought final.
-
Madrid Open Semifinalist – one of his best Masters 1000 runs.
-
Italian Open Semifinalist – a major highlight for the home crowd in Rome.
-
Roland-Garros Semifinalist – forced to retire against Alcaraz due to a left thigh injury.
These achievements boosted his ranking to a career-high of World No. 6 in June 2025.
| Tournament | Stage Reached | Notable Opponent |
|---|---|---|
| Monte-Carlo Masters | Final | Lost to Alcaraz |
| Madrid Open | Semifinal | Top-10 run |
| Italian Open (Rome) | Semifinal | Strong home support |
| Roland-Garros | Semifinal | Retired vs Alcaraz |
US Open Quarterfinals Highlight Musetti’s Progress on Hard Courts
While clay remains his strongest surface, Musetti has also made strides on hard courts. At the US Open, he reached the quarterfinals for the first time in his career, marking his best result in New York. His run was ended by fellow Italian Jannik Sinner, but it confirmed that Musetti can compete at the highest level across surfaces.
This performance followed his recovery from the thigh injury sustained in Paris, showing both his resilience and ability to adapt.
Balancing Tennis and Family Life
Away from the court, Lorenzo Musetti’s personal life has also drawn attention. He has been in a relationship with Veronica Confalonieri since 2022. The couple welcomed their first child, Ludovico, in March 2024, and in May 2025 they announced they are expecting their second baby.
Musetti has often spoken about how fatherhood has given him maturity and extra motivation in his career. The balance between family and tennis has become a defining aspect of his journey.
Challenges Ahead and Road to Turin
For Musetti, the rest of 2025 will be decisive. His path to Turin depends on three key factors:
-
Physical recovery from the Roland-Garros injury to ensure he stays fit.
-
Consistency on different surfaces, especially the upcoming hard-court tournaments.
-
Securing ranking points during the Asian swing and late-season events.
If he succeeds, Lorenzo Musetti could join the elite field at the ATP Finals, marking a historic milestone in his career and offering Italian fans a chance to see one of their brightest stars compete on the biggest stage.
