Round one of the outdoor hard court Winston Salem Open sees Pablo Carreno Busta take on out-of-form Yoshihito Nishioka. A second round match against tenth seed Sebastian Baez. Time for our match prediction.
Pablo Carreno-Busta has only had one previous match against Nishioka. It was played on this surface seven years ago with Busta winning the first set 6-0 and his opponent then retiring. Hopefully this will last a bit longer.
Busta has a 15-8 record on this surface in 2025. Ten of those wins came in back-to-back Challenger Tour hard court tournaments in Tenerife six months ago. On the ATP Tour, he's yet to make it past round three of a hard court tournament this year and he lost in the Cincinnati qualifiers last time out.
Can Yoshihito Nishioka turn his form around? The Japanese player is 149th in the live rankings, 36 places below his opponent. He has lost four matches (all played on hard courts) and 12 of his last 13.
Just before that bad run began, Nishioka made it to the last eight of the Dallas hard court tournament where he beat Brandon Nakashima and Frances Tiafoe. He's had plenty of injuries in the past year that haven't helped him at all.
We tip Busta to win this match.
