3) Reached the semi-final of the Chennai Open partnering India's Saketh Myneni
Having been given a wildcard as a 17-year old, Khachanov, along with Myneni, caused a little havoc by capping an unlikely run to the semi-finals. In the first round, they notched up a fairly straight-forward 6-1 7-6(7) win over the Spanish duo of Albert Ramos-Vinolas and Pablo Carreno Busta(both of whom are in the top 40 of the ATP Singles Rankings now).
The biggest surprise came in the quarter-finals, where they beat the top seeds and the "Indo-Pak Express" of Rohan Bopanna and Aisam Qureshi in a humdinger of a match that saw them prevail 7-5 2-6 12-10 over their much fancied opponents.
Their run was finally halted in the semi-finals by the eventual winners, Johan Brunstrom and Frederik Nielsen.
