Wimbledon Semi-Finalist Lorenzo Musetti’s Unwavering Passion for Tennis
Tennis prodigy Lorenzo Musetti’s devotion to the sport is evident not only in his impressive performances but also in the permanent tributes adorning his body. The 22-year-old Italian, who reached the Wimbledon semi-finals, has a tattoo of a tennis racquet etched onto a graph of his own heartbeat on his left arm, symbolizing his deep connection to the game.
Musetti’s tattoos extend beyond the tennis court, with an anchor inked on his skin representing the importance of family in his life. A quote from his coach, “Il meglio deve ancora venire” or “The best is yet to come,” serves as a motivational mantra for the rising star, who became a father in March.
Musetti’s Impressive Run to the Wimbledon Semi-Finals
As the second semi-finalist to take on seven-time Wimbledon champion Novak Djokovic on Friday, Musetti will hope to harness the energy of the crowd, who have already shown their support for the Italian’s powerful and resilient play. The 25th seed, who reached the final at this year’s Queen’s, has navigated a rollercoaster run to the second week of a Grand Slam for the first time in his career, winning three matches in four sets and two in five, including an epic quarter-final victory over 13th seed Taylor Fritz.
“The best is yet to come.”

While Djokovic will be seeking a more positive reaction from the crowd after being booed during his fourth-round win, Musetti is likely to have even more support as he steps onto Centre Court for the first time, determined to prove that the best is indeed yet to come.
