Delray Beach Open · Nick Kyrgios

By Scoop Malinowski Maybe this Nick Kyrgios shapshot anecdote observed by former ATP top 60 player Gilad Bloom, explains Nick Kyrgios better than any of his own words or his matches...

2013 US Open · Kyrgios · Nick Kyrgios

By Scoop Malinowski No player has dazzled the world with a combination of power, speed, huge serving and tennis magic as stunningly as Nick Kyrgios.

Marion Bartoli · Nick Kyrgios · Wimbledon

By Scoop Malinowski Nick Kyrgios is cruising along, quietly posting up excellent results.

What if he's softened everyone up to expect the next crash or tank but this time he's going to show us all the real, ultimate mature model of Nick Kyrgios, the one we've been frustratingly waiting to see for years?

John McEnroe said to a Belgian media outlet that he while he has great respect for David Goffin and his tremendous overachieving, he would prefer to coach Denis Shapovalov or Nick Kyrgios. McEnroe expressed high praise for what Goffin has accomplished but thinks there are a couple of limiting factors in Goffin's bid to win a Grand Slam major title.

David Goffin · John McEnroe · Nick Kyrgios · Shapovalov

By Jayita Belcourt In front of a packed Rod Laver arena crowd on Friday night, Australia’s Nick Kyrgios has shown not only is he a force to be reckoned with, but one to inspire the world too. With Hollywood star Will Smith watching courtside, it took the 22 year-old just over 3 hours to despatch his 3rd round French opponent, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 7-6(5), 4-6, 7-6(6), 7-6(5).

    Nick Kyrgios is 22 now and ranked 20 in the world. The tennis world has been waiting for the ultra-talented Aussie to explode like Safin at a major tournament but it has yet to happen outside of the big win at Wimbledon a few years ago vs Nadal. Since then we have seen countless flashes of the Kyrgios genius. As recently as Miami we saw Kyrgios extend Roger Federer all the way to a 67 76 67 epic semifinal battle.

First Famous Player You Met Or Encountered: Pat Cash. I played Junior Davis Cup with him when he was a coach. He was probably the first real legend that I met. He's a great mentor.
