New York, September 3 – The Arthur Ashe Stadium witnessed one of the biggest upsets of this year's US Open as Karen Khachanov, ranked 50th in the world, defeated third seed Felix Auger-Aliassime in four sets, 6-7(5), 6-3, 6-2, 6-2. This victory not only advanced Khachanov to the third round but also reaffirmed the resilience of a player who reached the semi-finals of this tournament in 2026.
The match started unfavorably for Khachanov as he allowed Auger-Aliassime to take a 3-0 lead in the first set. However, with remarkable resilience, the Russian gradually regained control, forcing his opponent into a tiebreak. Despite losing the first set, Khachanov showed high concentration by holding serve to love twice, preventing his opponent from gaining momentum.
The turning point came in the second set when Khachanov began to accelerate. He consistently pressured Auger-Aliassime's serve, breaking his opponent a total of seven times throughout the match. Notably, Khachanov saved seven of the nine break points he faced, demonstrating remarkable composure in crucial moments.
Auger-Aliassime, who reached the US Open semi-finals in 2026, performed below expectations and made numerous unforced errors. Fatigue appeared to set in from the fourth set as the Canadian could no longer maintain his early-match intensity. Khachanov capitalized on this, closing out the match with a four-point hold.
This victory marks the second time Khachanov has defeated a top-10 player at a Grand Slam. He previously reached the US Open semi-finals in 2026, a historic milestone in his career. Despite recent inconsistent form, having lost in the opening round of three US Open tune-up events, Khachanov has reached two quarter-finals this year, demonstrating his ability to perform well at major tournaments.
Khachanov's next opponent will be the winner of the match between Benjamin Bonzi (France) and Ignacio Buse (Peru, 32nd seed). With his current form, Khachanov has every reason to dream of advancing even deeper in this year's tournament.
For Auger-Aliassime, this defeat will certainly be a major shock. Being eliminated early at a Grand Slam as the third seed will raise many questions about the 25-year-old's form and mentality in the coming period.
