Diminished against Humbert, Khachanov gives news of his injury
Injured in the thigh at the end of his semi-final against Ugo Humbert in Paris yesterday, the Russian revealed the seriousness of his injury on social networks.
The image made the rounds on social networks: Karen Khachanov falling to the ground at the end of the match, following a thigh injury he sustained earlier in the decisive set of his semi-final against Ugo Humbert.
On the other side of the net, his opponent raises his fist and celebrates every point that takes him to his first Masters 1000 final.
After giving his opinion in the mixed zone last night on the Frenchman's attitude, the world No. 21 posted a message on his Instagram account to update his fans: "I have a mixed feeling at the moment. I was really enjoying myself and playing so well these last few weeks. It hurts to finish this way.
I went to see the doctor today and I have a grade 2 sprain in two areas of my right leg. So now it's time to recover and rest with my family before the off-season."
