Did you see his post match interview? Hilarious lol : )
He started with the excuse of too many pills etc and the reporters just ignored him, asked him what he thought about Djoker v Alcaraz. He
thinks anyone is surprised he lost? lol

----Android NewsGroup Reader---- https://piaohong.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/usenet/index.htmlHonestly, I am not surprised by his reaction. For some reason, right away in the beginning of his career, I remember feeling a kind of smugness about him. I felt that that would be a block for his progress.
The best thing he could do now for his career is get a proper coach. Tsitsipas may be smug, but we should enjoy him whilst he lasts. There will never be another one hander in the top 5 again…

I'd say he's a good chance to win 1 maybe 2 FO over his career if he
applies himself. He's a bit like Bruguera, non-factor off clay.

Except he is nowhere near as good as Bruguera. Musetti is not a slam champion on any surface. If you want to watch a single hander lift a slam trophy again, Tsitsipas is the only game in town.Alcaraz won't win every FO like Rafa, so there will be good chances for Musetti imo. Unless he gets lazy and loses interest like eg Gasquet I
think he'll win at least 1 FO.

Even on his best surface he has shown a talent for snatching defeat from
the jaws of victory.
He makes for some nice background musetti, though. A good foot soldier.
A good looking guy bleeding to his death in a Caravaggio scene from the battlefield.

His peak level on clay is right up there though.
He beat Djoker in Monte
Carlo a few weeks ago
and also led 2 sets to 0 at FO a couple yrs ago,
and beat Alcaraz in Hamburg last year.
Of course he'll never be a
threat to peak Alcaraz, but who is? Alcaraz already seems to be playing boat level tennis already and he's only going to get better. He's the
1st guy I've seen who looks better than 50/50 of winning a calendar
slam, good chance it'll happen in next few years.
