Nick Kyrgios, the controversial Australian tennis player, has finally answered the latest gossip. He had refused to play for his native team at the 2022 Davis Cup. However, Alex De Minaur and Thanasi Kokkinakis’s Australian team had an inspiring run to the final.  The dream ended when they were unable to defeat Felix Auger-Aliassime and Denis Shapovalov’s Canada by even a set. Later, Kyrgios shared a sarcastic comment when questioned about his participation. Fans were too quick to point his intentions out.

In reply to a comment on Twitter, he self-reported that he was traveling to a Dubai exhibition tournament for a six-figure salary. He has finally spoken out after the internet went into a spiral about his behavior.
