Down-the-line.ru will broadcast a live online text broadcast: Tennis. Roland Garros. Quarterfinal. Djokovic – Khachanov. Direct
Djokovic is in contention for a record 23rd Grand Slam title and is yet to drop a set at Roland Garros. Novak confidently beat Juan Pablo Varillas in straight sets (6-3, 6-2, 6-2) in the fourth round to advance to his 17th French Open quarter-final, breaking Rafael Nadal’s record.
On the other hand, Khachanov beat Italian Lorenzo Sonego in the quarterfinals in the fourth round with the score of 1-6, 6-4, 7-6 (9-7), 6-1. Karen repeated her best feat at Roland Garros by reaching the quarter-finals for the second time in her career. Earlier in 2019, Khachanov reached the 1/4 finals and lost to eventual runner-up Dominic Thiem, who then beat Djokovic in the semi-finals, but lost to Rafael Nadal in the main event of the tournament.
Given Djokovic’s stellar form and Khachanov’s fighting spirit, their quarter-final clash should be exciting. Djokovic is tough to beat on both clay and clay, but Khachanov showed his resilience against Lestien (won 0-2 in sets), Kokkinakis and Sonego. Karen will undoubtedly give battle to the Serbian tennis player.
The quarter-finals of Roland-Garros 2023 will be the 10th meeting between Novak Djokovic and Karen Khachanov. Djokovic currently tops their head-to-head with eight wins and just one loss in the 2018 Masters final in Paris. Their last meeting was also at the Rolex Paris Masters, but it wasn’t until 2022 that Djokovic won 6-4, 6-1 in the round of 16.
