Match cancelled after Nakashima withdrew
Brandon Nakashima is seeded sixth in the Adelaide International. Round one of this outdoor hard court tournament sees Nakashima face unseeded Damir Dzumhur. Read our match prediction below.
Whoever wins through to round two will take on either Ethan Quinn or Marton Fucsovics.
Brandon Nakashima is 33rd in the live rankings and has started 2026 well. His one tournament played so far this year saw him lose to Daniil Medvedev in the final of the Brisbane International. Before losing in the final, he won four matches, all in straight sets.
Last year saw the American reach three ATP Tour semi-finals, one on this surface.
Damir Dzumhur didn’t fare so well in his first tournament of the year. He lost to Nuno Borges in the first round of the outdoor hard court tournament played in Hong Kong and is 65th in the live rankings.
Dzumhur didn’t have a good tournament here last year. He was beaten in the first qualifying round.
2025 saw him win only nine of his 20 matches on this surface. He didn’t make it past round two on this surface last year but did win a Challenger Tour event.
Three of his last four matches have ended in defeat. We tip Nakashima to win this in straight sets
