“It was very difficult. Mentally and physically a difficult match. I immediately started losing, so I had to try to apply all my energy to change the dynamic and the flow of the match.

I think in the second set, from the score of 4:4, I was able to improve and thanks to that I took the match. This gave me extra confidence and helped me play more actively in the third set and lead the score until the end of the match,” Khachanov said after the match.
