Musetti dreams of the ATP Finals

After shining brightly in 2025, a Lorenzo Musetti has had to face the bitter side of sports in 2026, with several injuries that have kept him out of the top 10 and have put his participation in the ATP Finals in jeopardy. Despite being number 31 in the Race to Turin, the Italian tennis player does not give up, and he has provided the key to possibly qualify. 

In an interview with Sky Sports, Musetti spoke about the schedule he will follow from now until the end of the season with the intention of having options for the ATP Finals. "Right now, the important thing is to get back to training and start the Asian tour on the right foot. Soon I will head to Tokyo, and my schedule will be: Tokyo, Shanghai, and then I will return to Europe to play indoors in Lyon, Vienna, and Paris. That's all for now. We'll see if there is any glimmer of hope for the Finals, because the first two tournaments would need to go very well for me to aim for that spot".

Injuries plague Musetti

Obviously, the chances are practically nil after a year in which he has barely been able to find continuity. At the Australian Open, he was one step away from beating Djokovic but tore his abductor. The Italian wanted to return sooner than he should have and paid for it with more months of rest, and just before Roland Garros, he suffered another setback that forced him to miss the second Grand Slam of the year and the entire grass tour, including Wimbledon. 

To make matters worse, in the second round of the US Open he suffered a heat stroke and lost to Dane Sweeny, marking yet another physical setback of the year. His body has become his worst enemy and his goal for the remainder of the season is to find that consistency that has disappeared in 2026. If he also achieves two good results in the Asian tour, who knows if that will be the turning point he needs to return to his best level and fight for the ATP Finals.
