London, UK – Professional tennis player Kevin Anderson is almost certainly in the round of 16 after winning the second round in the season finale in London. South Africa's Wimbledon finalist outclbaded Kei Nishikori of Japan in 6: 1, 6: 1 in 74 minutes and barely replaced one of the top two spots in the "Lleyton Hewitt" group.

At the start, Anderson (32), who is competing for the first time in the top eight of the season, defeated Dominic Thiem of Austria in straight sets. Despite the debacle, Nishikori is still in the semifinals Saturday in his hands, because he had won surprisingly in his first match against the record holder Federer. On Friday, the 28-year-old meets Thiem.

Anderson crowns the best season of his career in London. This year he has already won the tournaments in New York and Vienna – on the way to the title he beat Nishikori. At Wimbledon, Anderson lost only in the final against world number one Novak Djokovic. The Serb is in the group "Guga Kuerten" Wednesday (15:00 MEZ / Sky) the next opponent of Hamburg Alexander Zverev.
