Russian tennis player Aslan Karatsev spoke about the victory over compatriot Karen Khachanov (7: 6, 6: 1) in the semifinal match of the VTB Kremlin Cup, and also spoke about his expectations from the final, where he will play with Croatian Marina Chilic.
– I think that Karen did not serve as he did all week. His first serve didn't work that way today. It worked for me.
– How would you rate the strengths and weaknesses of your final opponent Marina Cilicha?
– His strong point is serving. I'll have to guess. I will try to accept his first serve. It will be easier on the back line. I played with him in Cincinnati – lost. The match was stopped there, I lost my concentration a little. But I feel confident. Ready for tomorrow's finale, I know what he will do.
Karatsev did not let Khachanov into the final of the “VTB Kremlin Cup”
The final of the “VTB Kremlin Cup” between Chilich and Karatsev will be held on October 23, beginning at 16:00 (Moscow time).
