Tennis: Musetti show in Miami, Sinner too

 Lorenzo Musetti who? The Italy of tennis 'discovers' a twin of Jannik Sinner. The carrarere is one year younger than the South Tyrolean, and with him he already constitutes the new pair of phenomena of blue tennis, twins of the racket with a future that promises to be very promising. At the Miami Open, in Florida, the 19-year-old made the first acute, passing the round brilliantly at the expense of the American Michael Mmoh (6-4, 6-4). Later imitated by 20-year-old Sinner (2 headlines), who got rid in 62 minutes of the French Hugo Gaston (6-2, 6-2), # 162 ATP, already beaten a couple of weeks ago in the round of 16 in Marseille , in a match with virtually no history. The only moment of relative uncertainty in the second set, when Sinner has slightly decreased the intensity in the exchange and Gaston managed to get three chances for the counter-break in the sixth game, without being able to exploit them. Saturday the debut of Fabio Fognini against Sebastian Korda and of Lorenzo Sonego against Bjorn Fratangelo. Eliminated Salvatore Caruso, Thomas Fabbiano, Stefano Travaglia, Paolo Lorenzi and Federico Gaio. For Musetti the satisfactions are only at the beginning. In fact, thanks to the points won so far in Miami, from Monday the boy will rise to number 90 in the new world tennis ranking, thus gaining four positions and bypassing Marco Cecchinato. His next opponent will be the French expert Benoit Paire, 31 years old from Avignon, n. 18 in the world and with a good palmares (3 ATP titles out of eight played finals), but who does not particularly like hard courts. Miami is played on the latter surface, in the Hard Rock Stadium (the "home" of the Miami Dolphins of NFL football), and this could favor the Italian who seems to be at ease on this type of ground, as demonstrated a few days ago in Mexico, arriving in the semifinals at the Acapulco tournament, also played on hard courts, starting even from the qualifiers. There he liquidated the Argentine Diego Schwartzman (n.9 in the world), the American Frances Tiafoe (56) and the Bulgarian Grigor Dimitrov (16) before stopping in the semifinals in front of Stefanos Tsitsipas (5). A good business card for a novice 19 year old.
