Nick Kyrgios vs Reilly Opelka: Preview
Nick Kyrgios is of course an enigma, he can beat the ATP’s best players but struggles for consistency and focus. Kyrgios’ tournament appearances have been few and far between over the last few months. He’s played sparingly since the start of the COVID pandemic last year, with a third-round exit at Wimbledon at the hands of Felix Auger Aliassime.
He won in the opening round over Kevin Anderson in Atlanta, his most recent tournament outings before Washington. He fell in the first round of the Washington Open to American Mackenzie Mcdonald in straight sets, 6-4,6-4.
Reilly Opelka comes off the Citi Open having lost to Australian John Millman in the Round of 16 of the Citi Open. Before Washington, he played his last match in Atlanta where he lost 7-6, 6-7, 7-6 to Taylor Fritz in the quarter-finals. He comes into the clash with an overall 9-13 record this year, with the record being 3-6 on the hardcourt. His best result this season came in Rome reaching the semis.
