Nakashima, who is now 21 years old and was raised in San Diego and practiced extensively at the event’s venue as a junior, won the first set in under thirty minutes and took the lead in the match. The second set, which was marked by several extended rallies, lasted for almost to an hour.
Giron, the No. 5 seed and a former NCAA champion from UCLA, was unable to defend himself against Nakashima’s relentless ground strokes and well-placed serves. Nakashima won the match in straight sets. Nakashima hit a total of eight aces, with six of them coming in the opening set.
