Martín Landaluce could not continue with his great form after falling in the first round of the Barcelona Open 2026 against the second seed Lorenzo Musetti (7-5, 6-2). The Spaniard started superbly with an early break in the match, taking a 3-0 lead in the first set. However, from that moment on, Musetti started to play at his best and raised his level to what we all know he can achieve on clay courts. One of the best players in the world when his physical condition is good in these circumstances. He came back in the first set showcasing his powerful forehand and a unique backhand, leaving no chance for Landaluce in the second set. The Italian secures his first victory since the Australian Open and will face Moutet in the next round.
