The Australian Open 2021 has been nothing less but a blockbuster event. And some of the credit solely goes to Nick Kyrgios for his on-court drama and unique tennis talent.

After a great escape against Ugo Humbert in the second round, the Australian lost to Dominic Thiem in a thrilling contest. But in return, he gave a lasting memory to all the tennis fans.

And even though he played only three matches, he was responsible for turning the heat up in Melbourne Park. Looking back at his journey, the Australian said he’ll be back next year.

Kyrgios says he’s here for a good time, not a long time

Coming back from a 13-month break is never easy for an athlete. However, Nick Kyrgios, 25, entered Melbourne Park with the same strong attitude that he had left with.

In his first match, the Australian star hit 14 aces to book a straight-set win against Frederico Ferreira Silva. His combustible playing style set the home crowd on fire.

He subsequently faced Ugo Humbert, a tough young competitor from France. Saving match points against him, Kyrgios made his comeback heard.
