Nick Kyrgios beats Yoshihito Nishioka in Washington to win first ATP title since 2019
The 27-year-old Australian downed 96th-ranked left-hander Nishioka 6-4, 6-3 for his first ATP title since capturing the 2019 Washington crown. "It's emotional for me to be back here again and claim another title," Kyrgios said. Kyrgios, who lost to Novak Djokovic last month in his first Grand Slam final, made back-to-back tour-level finals for the first time in his career and didn't allow a service break all week. "It's just very emotional for me to see where I was at last year to now. It's just an incredible transformation. "I've been in some really dark places," Kyrgios said.
