Kamil Majchrzak staged a remarkable comeback at the US Open, defeating Russia’s Karen Khachanov in a thrilling five-set match to secure a place in the third round. The 29-year-old from Poland battled back from two sets down, saving match points before clinching victory in a tense super tie-break. The result equals his best Grand Slam showing from 2019 and stands out as a highlight in his return season.
The win came as a surprise to many, as Khachanov had beaten Majchrzak at Wimbledon earlier this summer. With the Russian once ranked inside the world’s top 10, expectations were stacked against the Pole. But Majchrzak showed grit, turning the momentum after a slow start and carrying his fight all the way through the deciding set.
It was a reversal of their previous encounter, where Khachanov stopped Majchrzak in the fourth round at Wimbledon. This time, the Pole held his nerve in the biggest moments, striking with precision in the final super tie-break. The victory not only gave him revenge but also kept alive hopes of a deeper Grand Slam run.
Drama unfolded after the match when Majchrzak attempted to gift his cap to a young fan. A man standing beside the child snatched it away, leaving the boy empty-handed. The act drew heavy criticism online, leading Majchrzak to issue a statement asking for help in finding the fan. The man is reported to be a CEO of a Polish company. Internet users later linked the man to a Polish company executive, who has since restricted access to his social media.

I hope he receives all of the public and private shame he deserves. That lady is amused – I'd be utterly embarrassed to be associated with him.
