The crowd did not take kindly to his retirement, booing the Aussie as he walked off the court. Never one to take anything lying down, Nick blasted the crowd for their disrespect towards him. However, he did not stop there, he even ridiculed Mexico, saying the country produced no decent tennis player.

Kalinskaya is still a young and up and coming tennis player on the WTA tour. The Russian youngster, too, played at the Mexico Open in the last week of February. She lost to Tamara Zidansek of Slovenia in the first round.

She last played at the Oracle Challenger Series in Indian Wells, once again losing in the very first round to Usue Arconada rather meekly.

The pair make for a fine young couple indeed. Watch this space for more news on their budding romance.
