Taylor Fritz kicked off his 2025 Nitto ATP Finals marketing campaign with a dominant 6-3, 6-4 victory over Lorenzo Musetti in Turin on Monday, spoiling the Italian’s debut and bettering to 1-0 within the Jimmy Connors Group.

On a faster indoor courtroom, Fritz actually has the sting together with his serve and forehand. Musetti got here up with some good pictures and loads of aptitude, however he lacks the expertise of enjoying on faster indoor surfaces over the winter (a la Federer) as a junior. In consequence, it’s no shock that indoors is statistically his worst floor when it comes to win-loss document.

Nevertheless, as soon as he tweaked his calf, it was throughout as he struggled to essentially push off on that leg. To his credit score, he caught it out till the tip, however primarily based on that, I believe we’ll be seeing Bublik step in to play the rest of the round-robin matches.
