Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios has been one of the most entertaining guys on the Tour. He is a unique character and over the years, has managed to win the hearts of supporters. He is one of the most genuine guys on Tour who wears his heart on his sleeve. 

Recently, Kyrgios competed in the Laver Cup 2021. Even though he and Team World ended up on the losing side, he was happy to be a part of the event yet again. To compete in the presence of Rod Laver and Roger Federer was an added privilege for the 26-year-old. 

The Australian ace spoke on this and stated, “Yeah, as we have said, and I will say it again, it’s a special event. You know, Rod is, you know, an icon of the sport. And to have Roger sitting on the side watching me being alongside these guys, it’s special.

“It’s unfortunate that I haven’t been part of the winning team yet. I think that something will change in the years to come.”

Nick Kyrgios took a break after the Australian Open 2021

Kyrgios began competing in Melbourne and ended up losing in the third round to Austrian player Dominic Thiem. He wasn’t seen for a considerable amount of time and featured directly at the Wimbledon Championships. 

At the Championships, he had to withdraw during his third-round match, owing to an ongoing shoulder injury problem. Prior to the Laver Cup, he competed in New York at the US Open. Sadly, he ended up crashing out in the opening round. We wish him the very best for the remainder of the season.
