, setting up their first-ever contest at Rolland Garros, Kyrgios couldn’t help but poke the bear on social media.
Last November, Wawrinka gave the 19-year-old some not-so-friendly “advice” after the youngster beat him.Apparently having kept the receipt, Rune fired back with his own barb after their latest clash.Clearly not expecting it, Wawrinka was momentarily speechless, before asking: “What do you want me to say?” and then walking off to shake the umpire’s hand.More was said in the heated exchange as they began to go their separate ways, but on-court microphones couldn’t pick up what they were saying.
“I know him , saw him play many, many times. When he’s healthy, like he’s been this year, he’s always a dangerous player. He’s been playing well.”
