Lorenzo Musetti is a name we will hear in tennis for a long time. The 18-year old Italian is quietly beating top names and slowly moving up the rankings.

Musetti is part of the new generation of Italians taking over men’s tennis. As a junior, he won the 2019 Australian Open and reached the finals at the 2018 US Open. He is currently ranked 127 in the ATP rankings.

Musetti was recently interviewed by Esquire Italy. In the interview, he mentions that Roger Federer is his idol, and that loves everything about Federer.

He says he likes the NBA but can’t watch much due to time differences. He is a big fan of Lebron James on and off the court.

Musetti also discusses his tennis development, his love for music, and the importance of family. In addition to the interview, the article features photos of the fashionable Italian. You can check out the interview here.

Felix Auger-Aliassime announced that he has split with his longtime coach Guillaume Marx. The pair had worked together for six years.

At the end of the season, players review their coaching arrangements and make changes. So it’s not surprising that Auger-Aliassime has decided to part ways with Marx.

Auger-Aliassime is yet to win a singles title in his pro career. He reached the finals at ATP tournaments in Rotterdam, Marseille, and Cologne this year. He will finish the year ranked 21 in the world. Despite these results, for Auger-Aliassime, in some ways, 2020 is a disappointing year.

Younger players such as Jannik Sinner are breaking through on the tour with their first titles. Auger-Aliassime probably believes that changing coaches will improve his results. For now, he has said that he will continue working with Frederic Fontang and the rest of his team.
