Dan Evans v Brandon Nakashima Head to Head

British No.1 Dan Evans and in-form American Brandon Nakashima have never been involved in a head-to-head clash before. However, with Nakashima playing, arguably, the best tennis of his life and Evans a tough competitor across surfaces, expect the beginning of a healthy rivalry as the two goes against each other for the first time.

Evans Made Third Round at Wimbledon

A home favorite at the home Grand Slam, Evans failed to seal passage into the second week at this year’s Wimbledon Championships.

Coming into the event with a quarter-final finish at the Queen’s Club Championships, the British No.1 opened his campaign with a hard-fought win over veteran Spaniard Feliciano Lopez.

He followed up his first-round victory with a straight-set rout of Serbian Dusan Lajovic in his next to set up a third-round meeting with rising American Sebastian Korda.

However, Evans couldn’t deliver the goods against the American and bowed out of All England after losing in four sets.

The Washington Open will represent his first shot at redemption since the Wimbledon disappointment. However, he faces a stiff battle with the in-form Nakashima in his tournament opener.

Though he has an all court game and could be more than a handful against top opponents on hard court, the American, coming off back-to-back runner-up finishes, will be a hard nut to crack.

Nakashima Finished Runner-Up in Atlanta

Though he will be a tad upset not to have converted either of his back-to-back final appearances into a maiden Tour championship win, Nakashima will know that a title isn’t far and Washington could well be the stage for him.

With some big scalps to his name in the form of Sam Querrey, John Isner and Milos Raonic across two events – Los Cabos and Atlanta – where he finished runners-up, Nakashima, simply put, is in the form of his life and it would take nothing short of a Herculean effort from Evans to get his number.

A strong server with heavy groundstrokes, the 19-year-old American has the form and the momentum to gun for his maiden Tour title in Washington and another big scalp in the form of the British No.1 might set him off on another splendid run.

Evans v Nakashima Prediction and Tip
