Alex de Minaur said he was in a dark place after his defeat to Lorenzo Musetti at the ATP Finals left him on the brink of elimination, with the Australian admitting: “I don't know how many times I can deal with a loss like this one.”
De Minaur served for the match at 5-3 in the final set against Musetti but the Italian won the final four games in a row in front of a raucous home crowd in Turin, sealing an epic 7-5 3-6 7-5 victory with a miracle forehand winner crosscourt.
