After securing a bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Lorenzo Musetti, accompanied by his girlfriend Veronica Confalonieri and their son Ludovico, unwinded at a beach. This was Musetti's second appearance at the Games.

Musetti was seeded 11th at the Olympic Games and commenced his campaign with straight-sets wins over Gael Monfils (6-1, 6-4) and Mariano Navone (7-6(2), 6-3) in the first and second rounds, respectively.

The Italian then triumphed over seventh seed Taylor Fritz in the third round with a score of 6-4, 7-5, and overcame defending gold medalist and third seed Alexander Zverev 7-5, 7-5 in the quarterfinals.

Lorenzo Musetti's winning streak came to an end in the semifinals when he fell to top seed and eventual gold medalist Novak Djokovic with a score of 6-4, 6-2.

However, the World No. 16 redeemed himself when he defeated 13th seed Felix Auger-Aliassime 6-4, 1-6, 6-3 in two hours and 17 minutes at Court Philippe Chatrier to win the bronze medal, his first Olympic medal. With this win, he also became the first Italian tennis player to win an Olympic medal since Uberto de Morpugo did it back at the 1924 Olympics which was also held in Paris.

Following his bronze medal win, Lorenzo Musetti took some well-deserved time off to relax with his family. Musetti, along with his girlfriend Veronica Confalonieri and their son Ludovico, enjoyed some time at a serene beach and basked in "happiness." He also took to social media to share a series of pictures, providing a glimpse at how they spent their time.

"What noise does happiness make? 🌊 💙 ," Musetti captioned his Instagram post.
