Ubuntu – How to get the mounted point full path while it has space in bash

I have an UBUNTU installation USB disk.
The disk name is "UBUNTU 22_0" and will be mounted on "/run/media/UBUNTU 22_0-sda1".
There is a space on it so the command "df | grep /dev/sda | awk ‘{ print $6 }’" is not work.

    Do it by character position instead of field number.

    Also, there’s no need to use grep when awk can match the first field itself.

    df | awk '$1 == "/dev/sda1" { print substr($0, 49); }'

    Any df should let you specify which filesystem you want to see, and with GNU df, you can format the output:

    df --output=target /dev/sda1 | sed '1d'
