Bet on Karen Khachanov to win this tournament in China (Hangzhou ATP).
The Russian is capable of playing very good tennis and even though his form was poor before, after resting from tennis for a little over a month, I believe he can dominate again. As the 2nd seed in the tournament, the Russian will also have weaker opponents, which will help him gain confidence and I think he will win the tournament. China often brings surprises, but the Russian doesn't have many chances of losing here. Realistically, the only one who can challenge him is in the semi-finals against Zhang or Etcheverry, who I believe are easily beatable and the favorite will be the Russian. The final will be more interesting because there are strong players on the other side, but if he maintains his good form, I think Khachanov will win, and I also believe he will be the favorite because I don't really expect Rune to make it to the final.
