Command Analysis
Yoshihito Nishioka 's performance at the current Citi Open has been very impressive. Earlier this year, the Japanese tennis player delivered good results only at challengers, but here in Washington he managed to overcome such difficult opponents as Jenson Brooksby, Alex De Minaur, Karen Khachanov, Daniel Evans and even the World №8 Andrey Rublev.
For Nick Kyrgios, this is a second final in a row. His previous appearance was at Wimbledon, where the Australian reached the final for the first time in his career. At the grass-court major, he lost to Novak Djokovic in four sets. In Washington, Kyrgios defeated Marcos Giron, Tommy Paul, Reilly Opelka, Frances Tiafoe, and Mikael Ymer to reach the final.
