Former junior world No. 2 Anastasia Pivovarova said not to expect much from Russian tennis player Karen Khachanov at the US Open.

In the first round of the US Open, the Russian will play with the American Michael Mmo. In June, Khachanov suffered a stress fracture and missed several weeks.

– Karen was injured for several months, and if not for this fact, it would be safe to say that he would pass the first round. There will be no less psychological pressure as he needs to confirm his last year’s US Open semi-final, and the chances of him doing so are slim.

I think it’s worth giving him time to get in shape and not have any hopes that Karen will confirm the result of 2022. He will still have high-profile performances at the Grand Slam tournaments in his career, the main thing now is not to force his return to the tour, ”Gazeta.Ru quotes Pivovarova as saying.

The main draw matches of the tournament will be held in New York from August 28 to September 10.
