Nick Kyrgios has taken it to another level
Recently, the 35-year old posted a throwback video clip on Instagram where he beat the World No.1 Djokovic. The game followed by Nick’s usual aggressive reaction. And the caption of the post is equally aggressive. It reads, “Talk shit but I’m doing what I do, you wouldn’t last if I put you in my shoes”. It’s originally the lyrics of hip-hop artist Jay1’s popular track.
It can be estimated that Kyrgios posted this video to project himself superior to his competitors. He has continuously criticized former and current players. The second-highest ranked Australian also slammed Alexander Zverev for partying at a club following the abandonment of the Adria Tour amid the pandemic.

Kyrgios vs Thiem
He didn’t stop there, as he expressed his raging opinion against Dominic Thiem and all others who lend their support for Djokovic. Thiem had told in an interview with TT, “Kyrgios has built a lot of nonsense himself. I understand even less when he interferes with everything. It would be better if he came to terms with himself rather than always criticizing others.”
Note: The statement was translated from German using Google translate
In reply, Kyrgios tweeted, “What are you talking about Thiem? Mistakes like smashing rackets? Swearing? Tanking a few matches here or there? Which everyone does? None of you have the intellectual level to even understand where I’m coming from. I’m trying to hold them accountable.”
What are you talking about @ThiemDomi ? Mistakes like smashing rackets? Swearing? Tanking a few matches here or there? Which everyone does? None of you have the intellectual level to even understand where I’m coming from. I’m trying to hold them accountable.
