Overview
- Kyrian Jacquet beat Matteo Berrettini 7-6(4), 7-5 in the first round of the ATP 250 in Lyon, a result published across outlets on Tuesday that ended Berrettini's run at the tournament.
- Berrettini failed to convert five break points while Jacquet converted his only break; the match lasted roughly two hours and featured heavy serving with a combined 29 aces recorded.
- By winning, Jacquet advanced to the second round and will face either Hamad Medjedovic or Brandon Nakashima for a place in the quarterfinals.
- Lorenzo Musetti reached the quarterfinals by defeating Moise Kouame 6-4, 6-4 in about 1 hour 48 minutes and will play the winner of Luca Van Assche versus Valentin Vacherot.
- The result is a notable step for Jacquet, who recently entered the top 100 and posted a career-best run in Tokyo, while it underscores ongoing inconsistency in Berrettini's season and gives local fans a high-profile home win to follow; in Italy the Lyon coverage is available exclusively on Sky Sport with streaming on NOW and the Sky Go app.
