5 dark horses in this year’s US open

Dark horse no. 4: Kei Nishikori
After the finalist run in 2014 by Nishikori, he has not been able to make an impact in grand slams. However, he took a bronze medal at Rio after beating Nadal and is back in contention for the US open. Nishikori is a skilled player but often has lack of power and consistency at the grand slams. Nishikori is ranked no. 7 and one can expect significant inroads by Nishikori into the business end of the tournament. If fully fit and ready to play, Nishikori is certainly one of the dark horses and a player to watch out for.
