Lorenzo Sonego's Barcelona Run Ends in Quarterfinals Loss

Sonego Falls to Carreno Busta in Straight Sets

Italian Tennis Star Bows Out of ATP 500 Event

Lorenzo Sonego's impressive run at the Barcelona Open came to an end on Thursday as he was defeated by Pablo Carreno Busta in the quarterfinals. The 26-year-old Italian, seeded 11th, had a strong start to the tournament, winning his first two matches in straight sets. However, he was unable to maintain his momentum against Carreno Busta, who prevailed 6-3, 6-3.

Sonego looked uncomfortable from the start of the match, struggling to find his rhythm and make an impact on his opponent's serve. Carreno Busta, on the other hand, was clinical in his execution, hitting deep shots from both wings and forcing Sonego into errors.

The Spaniard broke Sonego's serve twice in the first set and once in the second set to secure the victory. Carreno Busta will now face Casper Ruud in the semifinals, while Sonego will head home to prepare for his next tournament.
