According to the YouTube channel, Russian tennis player Karen Khachanov commented on the defeat of Thiago Wilde at the Indian Wells tournament “MORE!”.
“I don’t like it here (laughs). In terms of tennis. The venue itself is amazing: courts, stadium, tournament. I haven’t heard a lot of people say he really likes playing here. Starting from the balls, the weather, the conditions and the field,” Khachanov said.
The match between Khachanov and Wild lasted 2 hours and 39 minutes and ended in two sets with the Brazilian player’s scores of 6:1 and 7:5. In the next round, Wild will play Hungary’s Fabian Marozan, who beat Chile’s Nicolas Harry in three sets.
The tournament in Indian Wells started on March 6 and will run until March 17. The total prize fund in men’s singles is $8.9 million. The current winner of the tournament is Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz, who beat Russian Daniil Medvedev in the 2023 final.
In the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) rankings, Karen Khachanov is ranked 15th and Thiago Wilde is ranked 65th.
