The diverse nature and public image of players contribute to the ambiguity of the tennis world. Most players are known for their fierce reactions on the court, while others transcend it. After taking a long time off from professional tennis and his tales of controversy, Nick Kyrgios appears to be back in action.

The 28-year-old, who was sidelined for nearly a year because of injuries, has now returned as a commentator for the Tennis Channel. By doing so, he attracted the attention of fans and the tennis community. Nick slipped up while commentating on his first match at the ATP Finals.

Nick Kyrgios makes a blunder during his first match as a commentator

Tennis bad boy Nick Kyrgios stepped into the commentator’s box for the Tennis Channel, receiving mixed reactions from fans. The fans had mixed reactions to the Australian’s unique perspective on the game. Nick’s commentary debut took an unexpected twist during a match between Daniil Medvedev and Alexander Zverev. In a statement that can only be described as a major goof-up, Kyrgios made a sudden slip of the tongue, leaving both fans and his co-commentator in a shocking situation.

During the match analysis, Nick stated, “You look at people that have had s*x, success against Medvedev. Alcaraz, every time he plays against Medvedev, he’s moving forward.” The slip of words caused a moment of stunned silence before his co-commentator broke into laughter, welcoming Kyrgios to what he called his “first Tennis Channel viral moment.” Unaware of his blunder until then, Nick asked innocently, “What happened?” To which his co-commentator replied, “We’ll replay it for you during commercials,” leaving fans in a moment of laughter over the unexpected and humorous slip-up.
