Kei Nishikori, who is reborn, has made a reversal and is in the quarterfinals of a Challenger series tournament in Dallas. The Japanese beat 4:6, 6:4, 6:4 in the second round German Matthias Bachinger, who is 162th in the world rankings, and for his win needed 2 hours and 2 minutes. The next obstacle to Nishikori, who is now 26th in the ATP rankings, is another German - Dominik Koepfer.
The very beginning of the game was the Japanese striving to hit as many forehands as possible, although the start of the game was really unconvincing, and for nine games it had recorded 18 mistakes on its side. In the next two sets, however, his stats were greatly improved by this stroke, and he himself, with powerful cries, celebrated each of his winners, although it was a Challenger game. At the break between the second and third set, Nishikori asked for help from a doctor, but not a wrist problem that took him out of the world tour in the second half of la st year.
A week ago, the Japanese played their first game after a long absence and lost in three sets by Denis Novikov in another Challenger series tournament in Newport, California.
It was a very tough game adviced by video clips for messi (against Bahinger), I started a bit slow. I started to turn the course of events and play much better in the second set and the last two games were almost perfect. I`m glad I finished this way. I have accumulated gaming, it was fun on the court and well for my confidence, wrote Nishikori in social networks after her victory. The Dallas Challenger organizers boasted that because of the presence of the Japanese star all tickets for the tournament were sold. Nashikori`s last ATP World Tour was in August in the Masters in Canada when he lost in his first match against Gael Monfys and then retired to recover a torn tend on in the right wrist.
