Karen Khachanov Ends Jakub Mensik's Dream Qatar Run To Clinch Sixth Title
Karen Khachanov ended Jakub Mensik's bid to become the 10th youngest ATP champion with a straight sets win in the Qatar Open final on Saturday. The 17th-ranked Russian won 7-6 (14/12), 6-4 to claim a sixth career title against 18-year-old Mensik, the youngest finalist at a tour event since Carlos Alcaraz at Umag in 2021. "Every title is a special one," Khachanov, who didn't drop a set all week, said on court.
