“From the very beginning it was clear that Evans was a very difficult and uncomfortable opponent for Karen. There is nothing surprising here. The match lasted almost six hours and not everyone is able to withstand such tension on the court. Unfortunately, Khachanov could not show his best game and Evans took advantage of it. It is rare to prolong the game with a score of 0:4 and 15-40. There is nothing to explain, in fact Karen lost,” Olkhovsky said in an interview with a correspondent of “Championship”.
In the first round of the tournament, Khachanov lost to Briton Daniel Evans with a score of 7:6 (8:6), 6:7 (2:7), 6:7 (4:7), 6:4, 4:6. The match lasted 5 hours 34 minutes.
