Kyrgios on the grass

Starting with the Germany-based events, the 27-year-old enrolled for Stuttgart Open. There, by showing pure class, he made up to the semifinals but couldn’t get the better of the 2 times Wimbledon champion Andy Murray. Following that, Kyrgios stepped on the grass courts of the Halle Open. In the ATP 500 event’s semifinals, Hubert Hurkacz, the eventual champion, barred him from booking a final round encounter with World No.1 Daniil Medvedev.

Then came the biggest event of grass swing, that is the Wimbledon Championships. Though the Grand Slam had no ranking points to offer this season, getting a chance to embrace the trophy in itself is a major achievement. The former world no.13 started his Wimbledon journey with a bang by thrashing the former world No.3 Stefanos Tsitsipas.
