Rafael Nadal vs Rinky Hijikata Prediction, Head-to-Head, Preview, Betting Tips and Live Stream- US Open 2022

Second seed Rafael Nadal will face Rinky Hijikata in the first round of the US Open on Tuesday.

The Spaniard has won four championships so far this season, which has been fantastic. These include the Australian Open and the French Open, where he prevailed over Casper Ruud and Daniil Medvedev, respectively, in the championship matches. He also advanced to the Wimbledon semifinals before having to withdraw due to an abdominal injury, which also prevented him from competing in the Canadian Open. After that, the Mallorcan competed in the Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati but lost 7-6. (9). 4-6, 6-3 loss in the second round to eventual champion Borna Coric.

This season, Hijikata has largely played on the ATP Challenger Tour and the ITF circuit. The Australian lost to eventual runner-up Maxime Cressy in the opening round of the Melbourne Summer Set 1 despite having qualified for the main draw. He defeated Rodrigo Pacheco to win his first match of the year and earn a spot in the main draw of the Los Cabos Open. In the second round of the competition, Hijikata faced Daniil Medvedev and lost 6-4, 6-3.
