Jan Choinski vs Nikoloz Basilashvili prediction
Jan Choinski reached round two at Wimbledon for the second time in his career after a win over Vit Kopriva. However, despite taking the opener against Frances Tiafoe, he would go on to lose in four sets. Choinski then decided to compete in Braunschweig on the Challenger Tour, and the Brit delivered as he won the title, beating Hugo Gaston in the final. He is now at his highest ever ranking of 75 in the world.
His first-round opponent in Bastad is Nikoloz Basilashvili. The Georgian also featured in that event, but he lost to Vilius Gaubas in round one. He did roll back the years with his run to the round-of-16 at the Italian Open, but the 34-year-old’s other results this season have been largely poor. Overall, he has 22 losses from 39 matches in 2026.
Choinski has momentum on his side, and he is arguably playing the best tennis of his career.
