Karen Khachanov who reached the quarter-finals of the Australian Open after beating the Japanese Yoshito Nishiokoi shows he has a cosmic level, says former Russian tennis player Andrei Chesnokov.
Khachanov will play in the quarter-finals against the American Sebastien Korda .
Karen Nishioku was walking lightly. The first two sets – 6:0, 6:0 – indicate that his level is now cosmic. Khachanov played so sharply, unexpectedly, stretched the player, that he simply did not have time. Thanks to that, he won.
He went through an incredibly tough match against Kubler. It was a good win. But the most difficult match for Khachanov was against Tiafoe, because the American has good wins on the tops – he beat Nadal and is in good form. And Tiafoe had something incredible to win the tie-break with 1:6.
Karen is now fit, he needs to play and win. And it’s a very good chance to reach the semi-finals of the Grand Slam tournament for the second time. If Korda recovers after five sets with Hurkach, it will be difficult. If he is tired, then Khachanov will have a good chance, because when Korda is tired, he makes many mistakes. That’s his weak side,” Chesnokov told Sport24.
