“It’s All Rubbish” – Nick Kyrgios Attacks Media For Spinning News

Ever since he broke out after shocking Rafael Nadal at the 2014 Wimbledon championships, Nick Kyrgios always stayed on the headlines for both the good and the bad reasons.

Kyrgios has the ability to make the whole crowd cheer for him with his tennis skills. However, the cheers often turn to jeers due to his on-court tantrums. While many believe that he has a talent similar to the greats, others argue that he is mentally unstable.

“People will believe anything these days” – Nick Kyrgios

However, the Aussie star, who always had a tumultuous relationship with the media, hits out at the media for making a headline of his every move. While he understands that the media wants to earn money but questioned its standards.

“That’s their job. They’ve got real-world problems as well. They’re probably just trying to put food on their tables for their families, so I’m not going to beat them up about it,” said Kyrgios in an interview on Elliot Loney Podcast.

“I understand everyone is just trying to make some money. It’s not even about what right anymore, it’s who’s first. The article could be like ‘Kyrgios walking on the ground’ and the media would try to spin that. And people will be like, ‘maybe he is walking a bit too hard on the cement’, he continued.

“People will believe anything these days. It’s all rubbish. I could go to Twitter right now… And the world we live in and where I’m at in my tennis world, I would have the power to cause an absolute uproar. I could say something so controversial right now on this screen and things would just go mental,” Kyrgios concluded.
