Silent and without stridency, let the racket do the talking. The results of Karen Khachanov in recent months are certainly to frame. To the semifinals at the US Open 2022 and in the past Open the Australia it is now joined by a new access to the penultimate round in this Miami Open 2023, in which he is destroying his rivals and dominating every exchange from the back of the track. A profile similar to him as that of Francisco Cerundolo succumbed to the good work of Karen (6-3, 6-2), which reaches a Masters 1000 semifinal for the first time since 2019 and confirms a resurrection that has been brewing for several months. This victory also leaves him just one step away from the top-10: will be placed, as a minimum, as #11 of the ATP ranking ahead of the clay court tour. A win against Daniil Medvedev in the semifinals, coupled with a loss for Taylor Fritz against Carlos Alcaraz tonight, would put him back in the top ten in the world.
