Brash mouthed Nick Kyrgios describes Rafael Nadal as a 'sore loser' and Novak Djokovic as self-obsessed.
Malaysian-born Aussie Nick Kyrgios said he will play tennis for another five years.
The Parisian crowd may also be a little scornful after he said the French Open “absolutely sucks” compared to Wimbledon in a video he shot himself and posted on social media. Kyrgios might never have been past the quarter-finals of a Grand Slam, but he has shown he has the tools to topple any one of the titans of the game.
For all his boasts of being “a bit of a genius” on court, Kyrgios’s fitness is dire compared to the tour’s hard workers and his mental game has all the fortitude of puff pastry. His casual attitude toward the game is seen as only a front, to hide the fear of what failure would mean if he buckled down and tried his hardest.“I don’t like waking up every day and ‘this guy’s a waste of talent’. There’s a limit to this stuff that I can take,” he said in the podcast.
