"Jannik is one of the best in the world for timing on the ball. He steals time from his opponent a lot. It's very annoying, with his feet inside the court, as soon as he can get inside. Now he comes to the net, plays the volley better, serves with more variations. Forehand has improved, tightens a lot. I saw it much improved compared to the last confrontation we had."

Musetti further added:

"Jannik can finish No. 1, he has the mentality and the right character to be a leader in this sport. But I think he's already becoming one compared to last year, especially after all the changes. If he plays like this, he can beat anyone: Alcaraz , Djokovic, Nadal or whoever it is. He hurts with every shot, he can climb the rankings."
