THE PREDICTION

From out of practically nowhere, with next to form at all, world number 96 Yoshihito Nishioka has quietly gone about one of the campaigns of his career this week at the Citi Open. The 26-year-old took out the seventh seed Karen Khachanov in two tiebreaks on Thursday for certainly one of his best wins by ranking and that backed up two impressive victories over Alex de Minaur and Jenson Brooksby earlier in the week – both of whom reached last week’s Atlanta Open final. World number 40 Dan Evans dug in deep against world number 13 Taylor Fritz, coming back from a set and match points down to out-last the injury-hampered American as he retired late on the third. Evans’ best ranking win on tour since ousting Novak Djokovic last season is an equally impressive turn but the Brit has a poor record against Nishioka, and left-handers in general, that suggests this should be the Japanese’s day. Nishioka beat Evans in three sets at the Miami Open earlier this year to take a remarkable 4-0 lead in their head-to-head and that makes backing him to win outright seem a reasonable call.
