Before last week's Hangzhou Open, Buyunchaokete had played just one ATP Tour event. The 22-year-old reached his first tour-level semi-final at the ATP 250 and is now in the last eight at his first ATP 500 tournament.
“I'm really happy. I really enjoy playing at home, especially last week in Hangzhou where I have practiced for almost 15 years, and here at home too, I am in China,” he said in his post-match interview. “I was really looking forward to this tournament because it was my first 500 here and last week my first 250, so I'm really enjoying it.”
Buyunchaokete is only the second Chinese men's singles quarterfinalist in the history of the China Open, joining Zhang Ze, who accomplished the feat in 2012. He joined the exclusive club by recording his first victory against a Top 20 opponent in the PIF ATP rankings in one hour. and 29 minutes.
Less than five months ago, Buyunchaokete was number 239 in the world. Now the 22-year-old is number 83 in the PIF ATP Live Rankings and climbing.
The home favorite had to deal with a hobbled opponent in Musetti, number 18 in the world, who apparently suffered from right arm problems throughout the match. But the Italian still ensured the Chinese player emerged victorious after falling behind by a double break in the second set.
Buyunchaokete dictated the action and that turned out to be the key. He won 53 percent of his first-serve return points and converted five of his eight break points, according to Infosys ATP Stats.
“I lost a little bit of my focus, my energy. I was maybe relaxed because he started doing some drop shots and trick shots,” Buyunchaokete said. “I'm happy [I] came back [at] 4-all and I had a break and [was able] to finish the match. I'm really happy.”
In the other half of the draw, Karen Khachanov survived a late battle to power her way past Francisco Cerundolo in a nail-biting encounter, booking his place in the quarter-finals. According to Infosys ATP Stats, the 28-year-old saved four set points in the second set and needed six match points to triumph 7-6(4), 7-6(9) in two hours and nine minutes.
The Argentinian had ample opportunity to force a deciding set, but was unable to get stuck due to the resilience of the former number 8 in the PIF ATP Rankings, who reached the fourth round of the ATP for the first time since Masters 1000 event in Rome achieved back-to-back wins. in May.
After extending his Lexus ATP Head2Head series to 7-0 against Cerundolo, seventh seed Khachanov will face Tallon Greekpoor or Carlos Alcaraz for a spot in the last four and to boost his chances of a seventh ATP Tour title .
