Nishikori up to career-best No. 6 in world rankings

Nice. So glad for Kei. Hope he make it to London.

Kei- good luck with the remaining tournaments leading up to London. I hope that you can make a showing in Shanghai this week and accumulate some additional points. Stay healthy and don't overdo it. I understand that you were somewhat injured during your Tokyo run but your commitment to qualifying for London encouraged you to play through some pain. You and your team know your body the best so please rest up and hopefully, you'll be the first Asian man to qualify for this tourney. Although I've been a big Nadal fan the last 5 to 6 years, it's great to see you making your mark on the ATP. Wishing you the best.

I hope he will be No,5 at end of the year.

Sensational! Young Kei is on track to be number 1 within a year or two - and will soon become the greatest Japanese sportsman of all time when he nabs a Major!
