Lorenzo Musetti is proving to be a major player in this season's clay court tour, and rightfully so. With his qualification for the semifinals of Roland Garros 2025, the Italian becomes the fifth player since 1990, when a calendar comparable to the current one began, to reach the penultimate round in all four major events of the same year on this surface, including the three Masters 1000 and the French Grand Slam. Previously achieved by Alexander Zverev (2022), Andy Murray (2016), Novak Djokovic (2008), and Rafael Nadal (2007, 2010, 2011, 2013, and 2019).

Carlos Alcaraz had a friendly chat with the McEnroe brothers on Eurosport, where he was asked about various aspects of great interest. The first of them focused on whether clay is already his favorite surface, something that the Spanish player did not consider not so long ago, saying that he felt better on hard courts, but considering the results, he believes that clay is where he has been feeling most comfortable lately.

Furthermore, he explained that his wide range of technical skills comes from the good work done with him as a child, before beginning with Ferrero, as they made him play with boys several years older than him, which forced him to find alternative solutions to the baseline game since he did not have the necessary strength to beat them. Thus, he developed those skills at the net and the drop shots so evident in his tennis.

Novak Djokovic highly valued his feelings after overcoming his first match in the ATP 250 Geneva 2025, comfortably defeating Fucsvocis. "It is a pleasure to return to this tournament, I am very motivated to do well. I am glad to have broken the ice with my first clay court victory of the year. The truth is that it is a very demanding surface both physically and tactically, it is difficult to get free points with the serve. I have felt good, happy to have raised the level. I am aware that I will have to continue in this direction," said Novak, who will now face Matteo Arnaldi.

Many might think that Jakub Mensik would struggle on the clay court swing, considering his tennis seems more suited to faster surfaces. However, the Czech's good performances in Madrid and Rome cast doubt on that assumption, a claim he himself has been quick to dispel. "I was born in Prostejov, in that part of my country we train a lot on clay. I have this surface in my blood because I spent eight months a year training on clay as a child," reveals a man who can confirm his breakthrough into the ATP top-20 by the end of this week.
