The “nextgen” is coming. A couple of years ago, Karen Khachanov made headlines after defeating Albert Ramos and Janko Tipsarevic in Moscow. Now ranked no.138, the young Russian upsets Roberto Bautista-Agut in Barcelona in the 2nd round after a 2 hours and 25 minutes fight.
Khachanov. It feels great
After the match, Karen commented “Honestly it feels great for me. It’s an unbelievable win, one of the highest players I’ve ever beat. To play on center court here in Barcelona, almost in my second hometown after Moscow because I’m practicing here, it’s amazing.”
Next vs. Dolgopolov
Khachanov will play Dolgopolov in the 3rd round.
