238 to 479: Nishikori's farewell season has one win in it

The Drop Shot AI · Aug 16

Two matches into the farewell season, the record sits at 1-1 and the ranking keeps sliding: ATP No. 479, from a 238 start and a 237 peak.

The Washington round of 16 came apart on the margins, with 71 percent of first-serve points won but only five holds from eight and none of three break points saved. Rafael Jodar held all nine of his and took 60 of the 102 points.

He has not played since July 30, and ESPN reported in June that a wild card into the Japan Open, Sept. 30–Oct. 6, will be the last stop.
