Shapovalov edge past Khachanov in Quarterfinal of Wimbledon, will face World Number 1 Djokovic in Semifinal
Shapovalov beats Khachanov: It is one of the great jewels of our tennis. Prepared for any adversity and ambitious like the most. Denis Shapovalov has been demonstrating his talent for years. But also the winning character that he shows and that makes him make daring decisions at certain moments of his matches.
The Canadian is not satisfied with being a fixture in the second lines of each tournament. But wants to make a qualitative leap.
Every great player has to go back a match to five sets, and he has done it against a Karen Khachanov who left his soul but who was not enough with that. The final result was 6-4, 3-6, 5-7, 6-1 and 6-4 in favor of the Canadian who thus accesses the semifinals of Wimbledon 2021.

With Mikhail Youzhny’s advice, good old Denis seems to be on the right track to great success. Without shortcuts that later make you go back. But with daily work and progressively burning stages.
Shapovalov is much more than a talented player who has a deadly weapon in that one-handed backhand. He is less and less apathetic on the track, something that has reduced his followers and triumphs over the previous years.
World Number 1 is waiting
 There is no easy game, especially when you have a versatile player in good shape, like Karen Khachanov. The Russian has shown that he can play well on grass too, and was about to surprise locals and strangers with an anthological result. His performance was flawless. And only a stellar reaction from Shapovalov killed him.
And it is that Khachanov was very alive of legs, being able to subtract the second serves of the Canadian. Shapovalov’s first serve percentage in the first and second sets was not quite as high as expected, and Khachano was simply brilliant at looking to tickle the Canadian. He also had break options, but the Belgian was very successful and came out unscathed.
 The ship seemed to sink for Shapovalov when he lost the third set and seeing as Khachanov had it practically done to be able to take a victory that would be surprising to many.
The reaction of the good Denis did not wait, taking advantage of a certain relaxation of Khachanov in the initial section of the fourth set. Which ended up being lethal. In a seen and unseen Shapovalov managed to take the fourth sleeve by a forceful and unappealable 6-1.
Shapovalov confirmed the comeback
Shapovalov took the temperature of the match and did nothing but grow. His way being facilitated by a slight physical and moral decline from the Russian, as well as by better percentages with his serve.
Khachanov had no chance to break his rival’s serve in the final two sets, having to surrender to the Canadian’s obvious superiority. Key victory for Shapovalov, who places him as a clear candidate to stand up to a Djokovic. Who is undoubtedly the rival to beat for all the tennis players who are still alive in the tournament.
