One of the tennis greats of the 80s, the Australian Pat Cash, is remembered for his celebration after winning the 1987 Wimbledon Championships.

Following that, many players took it as a tradition to climb into the crowds after winning at Wimbledon. During a recent interview, the Australian talked about his compatriot Nick Kyrgios.

Kyrgios is infamous for his on-court misconduct and has set an ATP record for paying a $113,000 fine at the 2019 Cincinnati Masters.

However, the 25 years-old Australian turned the tides in 2020 as he repeatedly took a stand for social distancing. He even took upon the responsibility of helping his community in times of need.

Considered as one of the brightest stars in the sport, Kyrgios’ overall image remains blurry. As a result, former World No. 4 does not approve of Nick being called ‘the voice of reason’. Instead, he responded with a straightforward answer.

“I know Nick. But I pay very little attention to what he has to say. If Nick Kyrgios gives us advice on how to behave, then we’re in a worse situation than I thought.”
