Nick Kyrgios believes that Team World can upset Team Europe for the first time at the Laver Cup 2019 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/laver-cup/], this weekend. The Australian, who has previously defeated the Team Europe stars – Rafael Nadal [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/rafael-nadal/] and Roger Federer [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/roger-federer/], feels that his team can give their opponents a run for their money. In a press conference at today’s Laver Cup [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laver_Cup] launch in Geneva, Nick Kyrgios [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/nick-kyrgios/] told the media that the Team World has a deeper bond as compared to Team Europe. Kyrgios also revealed that he is not scared of their rivals as he is confident about beating them. Nick Kyrgios Laver Cup 2019 [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/851653642.jpg] He said: “I know for a fact that I’m closer with these guys and Europe with each other but I’m personally not scared of that team. I’ve beaten every single one of their members and I know guys on my team have beaten them before as well.” Nick Kyrgios further added that they have been very close to beating Team Europe in the past but unlucky to do so. He continued, “So on paper we’re underman and we’re an underdog but I strongly that we can win like we’ve been so close last year, we’ve had match points to win the whole thing. John had match points against Federer, I had match points against Federer. But we got super unlucky.” Nick Kyrgios [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-50-14.jpeg] Team Europe boasts five of the top seven ranked players in Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Dominic Thiem [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/dominic-thiem/], Alexander Zverev [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexander-zverev/] and Stefanos Tsitsipas [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/stefanos-tsitsipas/]. On the other hand, Team World’s highest-ranked player is world No. 20, John Isner [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/john-isner/]. However, Nick Kyrgios believes that the ranking has no significance for him. “I think ranking is the most overrated thing ever. So I strongly believe we’re gonna win. We’re underdogs for sure but I sit in this chair believing… Tomorrow I think Shapo (Denis Shapovalov [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/denis-shapovalov/]) is going to go out there, and I think Thiem, honestly, he’s not going to be wanting to play Shapo at all,” said Kyrgios. 

Australian star Nick Kyrgios believes that Team World can upset Team Europe for
the first time at the Laver Cup 2019, this weekend.

<h3><strong>Nick Kyrgios 2022: Net Worth, Salary and Endorsements</strong></h3>
Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios was first thrust into the limelight when he defeated <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/rafael-nadal/">Rafael Nadal</a> in 2014 at Wimbledon. As a result, he became the first male newcomer to reach the Wimbledon quarter-finals since Florian Mayer in 2004.

However, Nick Kyrgios has been fined several times in his career by the ATP. In one of his meltdowns at the Cincinnati Masters 2019, Nick Kyrgios was fined $113,000 for five different instances of unsportsmanlike conduct by the ATP.

During the match with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/karen-khachanov/">Karen Khachanov</a>, Kyrgios was penalized with a point for unsportsmanlike conduct and was fined $20,000. He was also fined $3000 for leaving the court without the permission of the Chair Umpire and was deemed to have gone to the washroom.

However, he didn't go to the washroom and instead went and smashed his racquets inside the locker room.

His unsportsmanlike conduct took place on four different occasions and the Australian has been fined $20,000 for three of them and $5,000 for the remaining one.

Nick Kyrgios also used obscene language on the court, for which he was charged with $5000 and had to pay $20,000 for verbal abuse.

In 2022, his on-court tantrums at the Indian Wells and Miami Open cost him around $60,000. Later at Wimbledon, he also received around $17,000 fine for spitting at a fan and for his outrageous behavior during the third-round match against Stefanos Tsitsipas.

He has also been accused of verbal abuse and unsportsmanlike conduct by much of the media and former tennis players, including John McEnroe.

<h3>Nick Kyrgios' form leading up to the 2022 season</h3>
Kyrgios did not have a great 2021, as he did not play many tournaments. Overall, he had a 7-8 win-loss record in 2021.

Before the 2022 season began, he last played at the Laver Cup in September.

After ending the 2021 season abruptly, he started the 2022 season in a great manner, as he won the Australian Open doubles tournament. Later, he reached the quarter-finals of Indian Wells and the fourth round at the Miami Open. As usual, he skipped the clay court season.

However, he came back during the grass court season, reaching semis in 2 tournaments. Moreover, he played in the final of Wimbledon as well.
