Lorenzo Musetti is in luck. After several months marked by the injuries that have caused him to drop out of the top 10, the Italian tennis player has returned at the ATP Washington with great form, and today he has shown resilience against Aleksandar Vukic to advance to the quarterfinals with a 6-3 5-7 6-3 scoreline after 2 hours and 16 minutes of play.

The first and third sets were practically a copy, with 'Lolo' displaying great tennis that allowed him to seal the victory. However, in the second set, Vukic gave him a scare by recovering from a break down and breaking Musetti's serve at 6-5 to force the match into the deciding set. In the third set, Lorenzo was up 5-2 and serving, and despite Vukic mounting a comeback attempt, he ended up conceding it by 6-3.

The ball is in Jódar's court

Beyond the result, the most positive aspect for Musetti is that he was able to complete a long match without any discomfort, which is a great sign in a season where since sustaining the abductor injury at the Australian Open, during a match he had almost won against Djokovic, he has barely been able to compete in tournaments. Injuries have plagued one of the most talented players on the circuit, but that is now over. 

Now, Lorenzo awaits in the quarterfinals the winner of the match between Rafa Jódar and Kei Nishikori, so we might witness a thrilling match in the next round if the Spaniard prevails against such a seasoned player. However, the Japanese player is not to be underestimated, as this is his final season and he has nothing to lose in a tournament where he received a wildcard to compete.
