Musetti's serve proved to be a major weapon on the day as he fired down eight aces with an 81 per cent success rate on his first serve in gusty conditions in Paris.
He also saved two of the three break points engineered by Tiafoe, who had 51 unforced errors to the Italian's 32.
Musetti has been one of the form players on clay this season, reaching at least the last four in all three of the principal warm-up events ahead of the French Open.
For both Musetti and world number 16 Tiafoe – twice a US Open semifinalist – it was a first last-eight appearance at Roland Garros.
