https://www.atpworldtour.com/en/news/ni ... -wednesdayKei Nishikori overcame a tough test at the Rolex Shanghai Masters on Wednesday, recovering from a set down to overcome Chinese wild card Yibing Wu 3-6, 6-0, 6-3.
The 28-year-old, who reached his second tour-level final of the season in Tokyo last week (l. to Medvedev), won 68 per cent of service points and converted five of 10 break points to record his 35th tour-level win of the season. Currently in 10th position in the ATP Race To London, Nishikori is bidding to qualify for the season-ending Nitto ATP Finals in London for the fourth time.
Wu, who earned his first ATP World Tour win over fellow Chinese wild card Zhe Li on Monday, dropped just four points behind his first serve in the opening set. The 18-year-old, who celebrates his 19th birthday on Sunday, reached a career-high No. 299 in ATP Rankings on 10 September.
"[Kei is] a very good player. He said he couldn't do anything about my first set," said Wu. "After the first set he was still able to find a way to beat me. There is a lot for me to learn to try to catch up with him, to get to be someone who can always know what to do even after they were beaten for one set and always find a way to adapt to the latest conditions."
After surrendering an early break advantage in the first set, Nishikori was broken to love in the eighth game before falling a set behind. But Nishikori responded emphatically, winning 12 of the last 15 games to book his place in the third round.
https://www.atpworldtour.com/en/news/fe ... 8-thursdayEarlier in the day, Nishikori withstood the power of Sam Querrey, the big-serving American, to record a 7-6(7), 6-4 victory over one hour and 33 minutes.
The eighth-seeded Japanese star saved one set point at 5/6 in the first-set tie-break with a deep backhand return that caught Querrey off guard. Terrific speed around the court helped Nishikori break Querrey in the final game of the pair’s 10th FedEx ATP Head2Head meeting (Nishikori now leads 6-4).
Straight off a runner-up finish at last week’s Rakuten Japan Open Tennis Championships 2018, Nishikori is now 36-16 on the season (20-9 on hard courts). He is currently in 10th position in the ATP Race To London for one of the four remaining spots at the Nitto ATP Finals, to be held at The O2 in London from 11-18 November.
