Grigor Dimitrov and Karen Khachanov are set to face off in their upcoming match. Dimitrov currently leads the head-to-head record with a 4-0 advantage over Khachanov. They have met previously in various tournaments, including Vienna, Paris, Shanghai, and Marseille. Dimitrov emerged victorious in each of these encounters.

Dimitrov, a 33-year-old Bulgarian player, is currently ranked No. 9 in the world. He reached a career-high ranking of No. 3 in the past. In 2024, he holds a record of 46-17, which includes winning the Brisbane title. He has also had success in the Paris tournament, with a record of 24-11 and reaching the final in 2023.

Dimitrov has a notable achievement in his career, as he became the first debutant since McEnroe in 1978 to go 5-0 en route to winning the Nitto ATP Finals title. He is the highest-ranked Bulgarian player in history and the only champion from his country, with nine titles, including the 2017 ATP Masters 1000 Cincinnati.

Throughout his career, Dimitrov has achieved significant milestones. He surpassed 400 wins in September 2023, with one of his most notable victories being over World No. 1 Djokovic at the 2013 ATP Masters 1000 Madrid. He has advanced to the Grand Slam semifinals at Wimbledon in 2014, the Australian Open in 2017, and the US Open in 2019. Additionally, he has reached 11 ATP Masters 1000 semifinals, including finals appearances in Cincinnati in 2017, Paris in 2023, and Miami in 2024.

One of Dimitrov’s memorable victories came at the 2019 US Open quarterfinals, where, as World No. 78, he defeated Federer. This win made him the second-lowest-ranked US Open men’s semi-finalist in history, following Connors, who was ranked No. 174 in 1991.

It is worth noting that Dimitrov is currently on a five-match winning streak in ATP Masters 1000 quarterfinals since April 2022. He aims to reach his 12th ATP Masters 1000 semifinal, the second of 2024, after reaching the final in Miami. Furthermore, he seeks to reach his fourth indoor hard court semifinal of the season in five events played, following his appearances in the Marseille final, Rotterdam semifinal, and Stockholm final.

In terms of historical performance in the Paris tournament, Dimitrov ranks fourth for the most wins. His record stands at 24-11, without having won the title. Djokovic holds the record with 50 wins, followed by Sampras, Becker, and Safin.

On the other side, Karen Khachanov, a 28-year-old Russian player, currently holds the 21st spot in the world rankings. He achieved a career-high ranking of No. 8 in July 2019, finishing the 2018 season at No. 11.

In 2018, Khachanov had an impressive run at the ATP Masters 1000 Paris tournament, where he upset several top-10 players, including Isner, A. Zverev, Thiem, and Djokovic, to claim the title. This victory made him the first unseeded champion at the Paris tournament since Nalbandian in 2007. However, following that achievement, he went on a 23-match losing streak against top-10 players from August 2019 to March 2023. He ended this streak by defeating No. 3 Tsitsipas to reach the semifinals of the 2023 Miami tournament.

Khachanov has also excelled in Grand Slam events, reaching the quarterfinals in all four major tournaments. His notable performances include reaching the semifinals of the US Open in 2022 and the Australian Open in 2023.

He represented Team ROC as the No. 4 men’s player in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, earning a silver medal (held in 2021).

In the current Paris tournament, Khachanov has had a strong showing, saving a match point against O’Connell in the first round. He has won 11 out of his past 12 matches, including winning the Almaty title and reaching the Vienna final (where he lost to Draper). He is one of two former champions left in the quarterfinals, alongside Rune. Khachanov aims to reach his fifth ATP Masters 1000 semifinal after previous appearances in Toronto in 2018, Paris in 2018, Montreal in 2019, and Miami in 2023.
