Flavio Cobolli had a heartbreaking defeat in the ATP Washington final in 2024. He returns this year hoping to do better, starting his journey against Yoshihito Nishioka in the second round. This match marks the third meeting between the two, and we have a prediction below.
The winner here will face Aleksandar Kovacevic or Frances Tiafoe next. World No. 18 Cobolli got a first-round bye, which will really work for him, as he’s already lost nine times at that stage this season.
It will also save him chances of getting fatigued, having had really minimal rest this year. The Italian had an impressive run to the Wimbledon quarters and comes here sitting 18th in the live rank after compiling a 24-18 record.
Cobolli has won two titles this year, in Bucharest and Hamburg, a feat that Nishioka can’t relate to. The Japanese player hasn’t gone past the quarter-finals this season, reaching that stage at Dallas.
Three times out of four, he lost a second-round match, and his record of 10-11 places him as a firm underdog here. Nishioka secured an encouraging three-set win against Jenson Brooksby in the first round.
That should build up his confidence coming into this game, as he broke a three-match losing streak in Washington. He is currently 128th in the live rankings.
