Congratulations on your recovery and 300th tour win ! Odaiji ni ! Ganbarre, Kei-san !

Yes 300 match wins is worthy of congratulations, and a Nishikori personal best 57 of those have come this season.
Hope he can continue a deep run in Paris, but really looking forward to seeing him play other members of this years top eight in London later in the month. Hopefully he causes the three guys ranked above him some trouble again!

Hopefully he causes the three guys ranked above him some trouble again! why would he want o do just that, lower ranked players have shown they can beat him also. even lower ranked players have won majors. Kei is a bit like baseballs Ichiro, plays for the points/records without ever actually winning a world series!?

It is what I am hoping for, not what Nishikori is hoping for - his goal is probably to win the whole thing.
Lots of lower ranked players beat top ranked players, which anyone who actually follows tennis knows.
Wtf has Ichiro got to do with tennis? You are comparing them because although one plays a team sport and the other an individual one, they are both Japanese?

A shame Nadal and Federer won't be there. Is this the beginning of the end?

Nishikori v Tsonga next will be a good match. Tsonga will bring the goods in front of the French crowd, I'd assume, so Nishikori will need to be on his game to improve on his 5-2 advantage in the head to heads.
