Musetti Reaches US Open Fourth Round After Cobolli Retires

The tenth seed strengthens his Turin bid with his first US Open second‑week run.

Overview

  • Lorenzo Musetti led fellow Italian Flavio Cobolli 6-3, 6-2, 2-0 when Cobolli stopped due to injury in their third-round match.
  • Musetti said he did not want the match to end that way and called Cobolli his best friend on tour.
  • He will face Zizou Bergs or Jaume Munar next, holding a 1-0 record against Bergs and trailing Munar 1-2.
  • The 23-year-old arrived after losing five of six matches but has steadied since dropping his opening set to Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard.
  • He sits ninth in the PIF ATP Live Race To Turin, about 220 points behind seventh-placed Jack Draper as he chases a first Nitto ATP Finals berth.
