Karen Khachanov vs Juan Pablo Ficovich prediction

Karen Khachanov begins his North American summer swing in Toronto. He last competed at Wimbledon, and it was a productive campaign for the Russian as he made it through to the quarter-finals for the second time in his career. He took advantage of an encouraging draw and pushed Taylor Fritz all the way in their last eight encounter, eventually going down in four sets. He now moves to 16 in the world rankings. However, he will hope to improve his form on the surface this season, which currently stands at five wins and six losses. He is yet to get past the third-round of a hard court tournament in 2025.

Juan Pablo Ficovich will be his opponent as he sprung a surprise in round one and achieved his first ever Masters victory with a dominant display against Great Britain’s Jacob Fearnley. The qualifier did not even face a break point as he raced to a 6-2 6-3 victory.

Ficovich will take plenty of encouragement from his landmark win, but this should be a match that Khachanov wins with ease.
