In a recent conversation with Lesoir Sports, the Belgian tennis player took a dig at the new Netflix series. And not only that, but he also slammed the Wimbledon finalist in the same statement. When asked whether he has watched the Netflix series about tennis players or not, the 32-year-old tennis player talked about how he felt the show was a little biased toward the 27-year-old tennis player and his girlfriend. 

He said, “I haven’t watched it yet. I am not really interested in seeing Kyrgios hanging out with his girlfriend. This series is not interesting for players or people who live on the tennis tour.” World number 21 is one of the main characters shown in the series, beginning from the first episode.
