Brandon Nakashima vs Richard Gasquet prediction

Brandon Nakashima at the 2022 Australian Open. Nakashima's serve led to his downfall during his second-round loss at the Japan Open. His second serve was routinely punished by Coric last week and if he doesn't improve in that regard, Gasquet could exploit it in a similar manner. The Frenchman, however, wasn't able to impose himself in a substantial manner during return games during his first-round loss last week to Jurgen Briand. He went 0/5 on break points, while winning just 25% of return points in total. Gasquet's backhand is still a force to be reckoned with and is his preferred shot when it comes to winning points. Nakashima's two-hander isn't that bad either and he is a more consistent player overall at this point. Expect the young American to withstand the veteran's challenge to advance further.
