“In the match with Kirios, Khachanov will have to keep his serve” – ​​Anna Dmitrieva

Karen Khachanov you will have to keep your ground to be able to count on success in the quarter-finals of the US Open tennis championship against Nick Kirios, commentator Anna Dmitrieva told .

In the US Open fourth round match, Khachanov defeated Pablo Carreno Busta in five sets – 4:6, 6:3, 6:1, 4:6, 6:3. Kirios, in turn, knocked out Daniil Medvedev – 7: 6 (13:11), 3: 6, 6: 3, 6: 2.

– Congratulations Karine! I am very happy for him. A few years ago, he looked even more promising than Medvedev and Rublev. But Khachanov had a classic game – too academic. At some point, it became insufficiently effective. There was a feeling that Karen could and wanted to win, but overall he was happy with what he had. He is doing well at home, a big family. Karen is generally a very nice and friendly person. He lacked the sporting anger and passion to win.

But I think Karen has been working on it lately. The second half of this season he passes better than before. The fact that Khachanov beat Carreno-Busta in five sets, who recently won the Masters and is in top form, suggests he is turning into a fighter.

It’s hard to predict what awaits Karen in the match with Nick Kirios. The Aussie has become more stable lately. When Karen arrived at her first junior Wimbledon, the first person he beat was Kyrios. But then they were both boys.

Now Karen is ready to show her best tennis. Everything will depend on its presentation. Khachanov has a good one, but in matches with Kirios she has to be constantly guarded. Because the Aussie has a very hard serve to receive, a break is enough for him to win the set,” Dmitrieva told .
