Can Musetti play better?

Author of undoubtedly his best match of the year, the Italian has nothing left to lose against his friend Carlito, and the icing on the cake: he will once again have to defend like crazy!

How can you beat this Carlito with full confidence? In one, prevent him from dominating the rally with his forehand. Musetti managed to do this in Hamburg by rounding his ball trajectories as much as possible. A little more difficult to do on hard. I think the best solution is to vary your game. Even if it means doing it excessively, but you have to break the Spaniard's game by not giving him the same ball twice in a row. The Italian has already done it very well against Shelton by varying his defensive moves. Except that there, Alcaraz will give him much fewer unforced errors, mainly because he is much more patient in the exchange. And short of pot, the match will be played in the afternoon on the central, so it will be a little quicker than in the night session.
