Professional qualities
Khachanov looks much more convincing on the dirt surface than on other courts. Here he is less dependent on the serve, and his mobility is enough to get into a comfortable position for a powerful forehand attack. Karen's backhand is more straightforward and he makes mistakes most of the time. At the same time, it is difficult to say that Khachanov is in optimal shape right now, but he is definitely close to his best playing conditions at the moment.
