Life on court hasn’t been the same since Daniil Medvedev’s loss in the Australian Open final earlier this year, and with Nyck Kyrgios taking to the sport like a duck to water, things were bound to get interesting in their fourth round meeting. For a while, they did. Both players exchanged service breaks to force the first set into a tie-breaker, which Kyrgios won on the fourth point. Nothing of the sort happened, as Kyrgios broke Medvedev three times in the two sets that followed, but faced only one break-point, which he easily saved.
Karen Khachanov was given 9/5 odds to win his fourth round match against the in-form Pablo Carreno-Busta, but he beat him in five sets in three hours and 23 minutes. In a match in which Khachanov faced only two break-points and was broken both times, he retaliated with five breaks of his own to win 4-6, 6-3, 6-1, 4-6, 6-3 and advance to his first US Open quarterfinal. Earlier in the tournament, Khachanov defeated Denis Kudla, Thiago Monteiro, and an injured Jack Draper, but he will have to do a lot more of what he did against Carreno-Busta against Kyrgios.
Nick Kyrgios and Karen Khachanov are scheduled to face each other on Tuesday, September 6 in the quarter-final of the 2022 US Open. The fourth and final Grand Slam of the season began on August 29 and will go on until September 11.
