"It's the three-quarter rallies, and that's where Thanasi beat Wawrinka, where he forced him into error – and that's the situation again Khachanov."He's got to win his share of points where it's not decided by a winner or error but you force your opponent into error.

We'll see how he backs up 48 hours later," reasoned Masur."The Russian has got a great mind. He's really strong, he's really consistent in his attitude throughout matches," he added."Bit of funk on the forehand.
"I think Thanasi just has to focus. I'm not saying Khachanov is one-dimensional, you know what you're going to get. You just have to be good enough to beat him and we'll find out if Thanasi has got the game."That saw the Russian prevail in the 2018 ATP Masters 1000 Monte Carlo in Monaco, 7-5, 6-4.
