Kei Nishikori is 32-years old and repeated injuries have taken a toll. Nishikori’s best results have come at the US Open. He reached the finals there in 2014 where he lost to Marin Cilic. He also reached the semifinals in 2016 and 2018. Though he has reached the quarterfinals at a grand slam 12 times, he has not been able to win a grand slam yet.
