Yoshihito Nishioka
In the first half of the season, Yoshihito Nishioka mostly demonstrated his skills at different challengers, rarely showing up at large tournaments. But here in Washington, the Japanese athlete has delivered solid performances. In the opening round, he closed Jenson Brooksby in straight sets (6-4, 6-3), and after that, he prevailed over Alex De Minaur (3-6, 7-6, 6-2).

He got his best hard-court results at the start of the tour, securing the runner-up finish in Adelaide, reaching the 3rd round of the Australian Open and the semifinals in Doha.

Nishioka played 2 tie-breaks in his last 5 matches.
In 3 of Khachanov's last 5 matches, no more than 9 games were played in the first set.
