Nishikori is the pride of Japanese tennis. The 29-year-old won bronze at the 2016 Summer Games in Rio — the first Japanese tennis player to medal in 96 years.
At the 2014 US Open, he became the first Japanese male to reach a Grand Slam final.
Nishikori boasts a vast endorsement portfolio which includes Asahi, Jaguar, Japan Airlines, Lixil, Nike, Nissin, NTT, Procter & Gamble, Tag Heuer, Uniqlo, and Wilson.
Some of his sponsors like Japan Airlines and Nissin are also doubling as sponsors of the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo, so look for Nishikori to play a prominent role.
