Kei Nishikori visits EA Sports studio

Recently, Kei Nishikori, the cover athlete for EA Sports Grand Slam Tennis (Japanese edition) visited the EA Sports studio in Orlando.

"I am really excited to featured in EA Sports Grand Slam Tennis," Kei said. "I enjoy representing Japan on the court and the fact that I am now included along with both current and past players in the game is really great."

"The Grand Slams are tournaments that every tennis professional wants to win and now through the game everyone will be able to put themselves on the court and experience the excitement and joy of playing as a pro."

Kei tried his hand on the game. He chose to play his own character and played against Pete Sampras and Rafael Nadal.


Kei has the potential to beat those big guys in real tennis matches. But he has to recover completely from the current arm injury first.
