In a riveting match during the Men's Singles Quarter-final at the 2024 Olympics, held at the iconic Roland-Garros, Lorenzo Musetti of Italy triumphed over Germany's Alexander Zverev. After two tightly contested sets, Musetti secured his victory with a final score of 7-5, 7-5, showcasing his remarkable skill and mental fortitude.

Musetti, seeded 11th, proved to be the more resilient competitor, particularly in crucial moments, as he converted 75% of his break points. His ability to maintain composure under pressure was evident when he saved multiple break points during both sets.

Zverev, a formidable opponent seeded 3rd, had a strong performance but ultimately fell short.
