Honored coach of Russia Viktor Yanchuk assessed Karen Khachanov’s chances of winning the final of the ATP 250 tournament in Zhuhai, China, with a prize fund of more than 980 thousand dollars.
On Tuesday, the Russian athlete will play in the decisive match with the Japanese Yoshihito Nishioka. In early June, Khachanov lost to Novak Djokovic in the quarterfinals of the French Open, after which he withdrew from a number of tournaments due to a stress fracture and a crack in the sacrum.
— Victory in the final of the tournament will be of great importance for Khachanov; he needs to believe in himself again through success in the fight against Nishioka. We have already noticed how much he got into good shape during the tournament, but the upcoming fight will not be an easy walk.
Do not forget: Karen has recovered from a serious injury and, despite all his strong qualities, like the same high-speed strike, much will determine his physical health and psychological stability. An interesting match awaits us, and both have chances here,” Yanchuk told RT.
