Japan's Kei Nishikori advanced to the second round of the men's singles at the Tokyo Games on Sunday, triumphing over fifth seed Andrey Rublev 6-3 6-4 on home soil.
Nishikori, who won the bronze medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics, said he was happy to be back playing high-level tennis after struggling with injuries in recent years.
"I think experience helps a lot. The first Olympics I was really nervous, and I have a bad memory about that but since then, I think I got many experience, I got strong mentally, and I'm playing good." His win followed his compatriot Naomi Osaka's dominant performance over China's Zheng Saisai in the first round of the women's singles on Sunday.
