‘I would have loved to play against him’ – Lorenzi Musetti names Roger Federer as his favorite player

A sizable portion of tennis players, fans, and analysts adore Roger Federer. Federer established his supremacy on the circuit first among the Big 3 (himself, Novak Djokovic, and Rafael Nadal), and he is sometimes cited as a major factor in the rise of the other two players.

Lorenzo Musetti, the 20th-ranked player in the world, has chosen his “Best of All Time.” It’s intriguing that the Italian 21-year-old, who defeated Serbia’s Novak Djokovic in the Monte Carlo Masters third round, declared that Federer is his all-time greatest player. It is thought that Musetti’s victory over the Serbian was the best of his career to date.

“My favorite player, for sure, was Roger Federer,” Musetti said. “He has always been a great inspiration to me. I would have loved to play against him but unfortunately, I didn’t have that chance. For me, Roger Federer is the greatest player of all time.”

“The greatest woman of all time to play against probably would be Serena Williams because she had the strength of a man and she was hitting hard balls and I think it for sure it would have been tough to play against her,” he said.

Nadal and Federer are two examples of…: Stefanos Tsitsipas

Stefanos Tsitsipas complimented Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal for being able to master the turbulence that comes with tennis before to the 2023 Barcelona Open. The 2021 Geneva Open match between Pablo Andujar and the Swiss legend, who lost his opening match in Barcelona and is planning to retire this year, was seen as a pivotal occasion for him. He was defeated by the Spaniard 6-4, 4-6, 6-4.

“In my case, I feel that tennis is a really complicated sport to manage the daily intensity. Nadal and Federer are two examples of players who have managed it perfectly,” Tsitsipas was quoted as saying by Sportskeeda.

“Choosing one match is very difficult, but the one with Federer is undoubtedly a huge moment in my career. If playing against him was a dream, then beating him was a double dream,” Andujar said.
