Kei Nishikori is playing at a very high level at the start of the 2025 season.

The Nippon, who had eliminated a diminished Denis Shapovalov yesterday, defeated No.3 seed Karen Khachanov (4-6, 6-3, 7-5) at the Hong Kong tournament on Wednesday.

Faced with the Russian's powerful shots, Nishikori shone with his attacking tennis and caught his opponent off guard with numerous winning shots.

A final forehand into the net sealed his place in the quarter-finals, where he will face Cameron Norrie.

Thanks to this success, the former world No. 4 will be back in the Top 100 next Monday, and will be ranked 91st in the world at best. It was also his first Top 20 victory since 2021.

Khachanov K • 3

Nishikori K • WC

157e, 397 points

18e, 2320 points

Super happy to see Kei playing injury free and well

I propose the following changes to the rules:

1...a walķover will not be a loss. We have no control of player's health. If he or she is entered in a contest we expect them to play.

2...an incomplete match is not a loss. If a player forfeits we pick another match if there are more to choose.

3...this also applies if TT cancels a match. TT will not take hours to decide an outcome.

How about leavin...

It's a shame that so many matches are being canceled. TT ,you are destroying your game ,and thereby killing your app. I don't know how many matches others have had canceled , but I'm at 3 and it's only thursday.

As a long time player and lover of this game , I don't know how much of this I can tolerate. For example I waited hours last night for you to confirm my win and post my points. Every ot...

This week I have used all my formulas and best guesses to try to achieve the high score jimandlori958 set in our last competition. I am two games short because of cancelations and I need all wins to get there.

An impressive win.. Congrats to our winner this week, jimandlori958 and with a score that could not be caught or matched. I don't remember a 56 in a while with our group. Nice to see everyone using the 2 point predictions. Can't win without 'em.
