Monte Carlo, April 13 – the final of Monte Carlo Masters 2025 closed with the choking victory of Carlos Alcaraz against Lorenzo Musetti after three stressful sets. However, the focus is not only in the excellent performance on the field but also in a dramatic moment behind the scenes – when Musetti, full of disappointment, did not keep calm and broke out fiercely with his coach.
Immediately after leaving the field with a face that showed a hurting face, the Italian player went straight to the backstage, where he and coach Simone Tartarini were said to have had a tense exchange. The witnesses at the scene described the atmosphere at that time “stuffy and boiling”, when Musetti loudly reprimanded the tactics, especially in the last set where he let Alcaraz come back spectacularly.
“Musetti was completely out of control. He punched the closet, screamed and seemed to blame the whole training team. Tartarini tried to keep calm, but could not avoid the strong reaction from students,” a backstage staff revealed.
This final is a golden opportunity for Musetti to win the first Masters 1000 title in his career. The 23 -year -old player had a excellent performance in the first two sets, but lost his advantage when Alcaraz competed to explode in the decisive set. Musetti’s disappointment is understandable, but the overwhelming emotions has made his image seriously affected.
The representative of Musetti refused to make a detailed comment, only confirming that “everything has been resolved internal”. However, the video recording the argument quickly spread on social networks, creating a wave of controversy over psychological pressure in the top sport.
Carlos Alcaraz, a Spanish young champion, in the press conference after the match, sent a good wish to Musetti: “I know he played with all his heart. Losing a big match like this is not easy. I hope Lorenzo will return stronger.”
Monte Carlo Masters 2025 may have been closed with Alcaraz’s victory, but the aftermath of the bursting emotions, both joy and sorrow, will be mentioned for a long time later. With Musetti, this is not just a mere failure, but also a milestone worth pondering for the next journey in his career.
