With a Quickness

Vienna fast conditions suit Brandon Nakashima's game.

And with a 69% career win rate indoors (well above his overall 55% rate on all surfaces), today's 6-2, 7-5 win over Luciano Darderi isn't a surprise.

But, a much bigger test awaits: Khachanov or Griekspoor.

Thou shalt not support a man who bulldozes the White House to build himself a golden ballroom whilst the government is shut down because he doesn’t want the financial records tying him to Jeffrey Epstein to come out.

Eva Destruction

(Yeah, yeah. I know I've already used this before. But, like, it's pretty apt, right?)

Eva Lys picks up her 9th straight opening round win at the WTA level, dominating last year's semifinalist Katie Boulter, 6-2, 6-1, without facing a single break point. 👀

Kessler Comeback

With 3 WTA titles under her belt already, McCartney Kessler has quickly picked up the kind of experience that gets you through tough matches.

And the former Florida Gator shows it off today in Tokyo, rallying past Cristina Bucsa, 3-6, 7-5, 6-3.

Nice to Xiyu Again!

A quarterfinalist last year and the outright champion in 2023, Wang Xiyu is very familiar with success in Guangzhou.

Needing a wildcard to make the main draw this year, the 24yo starts off with an upset over #7 seed Francesca Jones, 6-4, 6-4.

Joint Reignites

It's been a breakout year for Maya Joint, starting from outside the top 100 and currently sitting up at #34.

But, after a strong start in Seoul, the Aussie has faded as the Asian swing has gone on, losing 3 of her last 4.

Joint rallies to get a good win today.

Ready to Return

Playing what looks to be her final event of the 2025 season, Anna Kalinskaya makes sure not to leave Asia without a win.

After losing her opening matches in both Beijing and Wuhan, the 26yo comes roaring to life in Tokyo, rolling past Suzan Lamens, 6-3, 6-1, to reach round 2.
