Nick Kyrgios was left infuriated with the umpire during his third-round game with Stefanos Tsitsipas at Wimbledon.

I'm not playing until we get to the bottom of it" before continuing his rant. Djokovic is a petulant idiot. Here's some footage of the clash. It was in a clash that saw the Australian call a line judge a ‘snitch'. The Serbian was trailing 6-5 in the first set of the match when he knocked away a ball he had from his service game – a strike that hit a line judge in the throat.

- Wimbledon “I love it, it’s different. I love it, it’s different.

Kyrgios has found a way to spark a new controversy after the match between Alexander Bublik and Frances Tiafoe.

Kyrgios pointed out the difference in treatment that the tennis world gives him when he performs certain plays: "I love what Bublik did, it's different. " After his winning debut on the lawns of the All England Club, Nick wanted to send a message to the British crowd, which provoked him several times during the match against wild card Paul Jubb. I'm just starting to think it's normal when it really isn't. You know, I didn't say anything to the crowd until they started every time I got to the bottom of it.

Cotter also believes that should he defeat Tsitsipas, Kyrgios could enjoy a very successful Wimbledon.“The draw is really opening up for a lot of players on ...

Tsitsipas had miss-hit a forehand and Kyrgios appeared to know it was going long as he moved the racket behind his back and hit the ball through his legs. “Nick, he is the black sheep of the ATP," Tsitsipas said earlier this year. Kyrgios wasted no time playing up to the crowd when he tried a tweener midway through the fourth game. The Australian also called Kyrgios a 'joke' about his serving. “No, it'll be the towels or the bananas or something,” to which Cotter agreed. Is he wondering where the fans are?”

Nick Kyrgios furiously ranted at the umpire and supervisor during his Wimbledon third-round match with Stefanos Tsitsipas on Saturday.The 27-year-old.

Upon his arrival onto the court, Kyrgios argued with the supervisor and said he would refuse to play on until his opponent was thrown out. As a result, he received a code violation warning from the umpire. Tsitsipas reacted to the loss of the set by hitting a ball into the crowd.

They would head to a tiebreak, and at 4-4, after eight consecutive points won on serve, Kyrgios earned the first mini-break. To Tsitsipas' great credit, he competed in the fourth set as if nothing had distracted him from playing air-tight tennis. If you thought Kyrgios took that decision in stride, I have a bridge to sell you. Badosa; Nadal vs. Tsitsipas; Kvitova vs. Sinner; Djokovic vs.

It appeared to narrowly miss a spectator in the crowd. The rules state “abuse of balls is defined as intentionally hitting a ball out of the enclosure of the court, hitting a ball dangerously or recklessly within the The Grand Slam Rulebook explains that should “not violently, dangerously or with anger hit, kick or throw a tennis ball within the precincts of the tournament site except in the reasonable pursuit of a point during a match”.

Nick Kyrgios advanced to the fourth round at Wimbledon for the first time since 2016 on Saturday with a feisty 6-7(2), 6-4, 6-3, victory against fourth seed ...

The Australian let slip his first match point at 6/5 by missing an inside-out forehand wide, and he then saved a Tsitsipas set point at 6/7, which would have forced a decider. After hitting a crisp backhand volley winner to claim the set on the next point, he made a “money” motion with his hand in praise of his own work. The tension began to build at the end of the first set when Kyrgios was unhappy with a linesperson's call on the baseline. Kyrgios saved a break point at 4-4 in the second set thanks to a daring second-serve ace. It was a hell of a match." Kyrgios, who will next play #NextGenATP American Brandon Nakashima, claimed his first win at a major against a Top 10 opponent since the third round of The Championships in 2015.

The brash Australian is a divisive but definitely modern figure, and the embodiment of sport in the social media age.

But it is also here that Kyrgios is on to something, oddly state-of-the-art in his fraught interactions with the crowd and the angry digital mob. And of course Kyrgios, who seems too porous for his own good, who just can’t stop talking and engaging, who has 2m followers on Instagram and constantly interacts, is deep into it. And Kyrgios did spit on court and harangue a line judge and remains laughably devoid of self-awareness when he bemoans a lack of “respect”. The fact is Wimbledon, in its current recessionary mode, really could do with him going deep in this draw, and not just because he is such a vividly talented player. The soundtrack to that collective consciousness is not the music of the spheres but an endless spawn of enraged avatars saying things like “try crypto now bro” and “wake up sheeple”, a billion voices shouting into the void about grammar and football and celebrities, all of it preserved in the digital eternity like toxic microplastics. Here was a space where the shared human essence could coalesce and commune, a pure shore on which the future would be crafted by gentle, unhurried humans with bulbous green Apple Macintoshes, concerned only with upcycling blogs and really cool typefaces and artisan bagel houses in Prague.

Kyrgios emerged from a fiery battle with an impressive and thrilling 6-7 (2) 6-4 6-3 7-6 (8) win over the fourth seed.

Kyrgios maintained the backing of the Court One crowd and a forehand winner saw him break the Tsitsipas serve again to lead in the third. The roof closing at 8:45pm added further tension and when play resumed Kyrgios was forced to save set point with a backhand winner. “I’m just trying to play tennis,” Tsitsipas protested and when a short ball from Kyrgios sat up at the net the Greek smacked a smash as hard as he could at Kyrgios. It was a reminder of what remains a unique talent but the question remained whether Kyrgios could cool his emotions to deliver it on the big stage at a grand slam. Kyrgios stood with two serves and then a match point to reach the fourth round, only for Tsitispas to force him to save set point that would have forced a decider. He was lashing out after Kyrgios led, despite the Australian losing his focus in a tirade at the umpire, demanding for Tsitspas to be disqualified for whacking a ball into the crowd.

Nick Kyrgios was insistent that Stefanos Tsitsipas should be defaulted during the third-round match at Wimbledon.

“You need to get more supervisors then. Kyrgios then demanded that the umpire bring out a supervisor. “What classifies as that then? What classifies it? It’s a default bro! It’s a default brother.

Nick Kyrgios has never had a dull match, and part of that is by design. The ever-passionate Australian defeated Stefanos Tsitsipas at Wimbledon on Saturday, ...

Tsitsipas was highly critical of Kyrgios after the match, and he pulled no punches in talking about Kyrgios' demeanor. He will look to match his career best in a singles Grand Slam with a quarterfinal appearance. Kyrgios said the Tsitsipas hit was similar.

At 3-1, 40-0 Kyrgios threw in an underarm serve, which Tsitsipas responded to by sprinting up to the ball and slapping it at the back fence. He sent a backhand into the lower section of the crowd, just below his player’s box, and he was extremely fortunate not to strike anyone. “You can’t hit a ball into the crowd, and hit someone, and not get defaulted,” he said. When Kyrgios double faulted at 1-1 in the tie-break, Tsitsipas was ready and breezed through it to take the set. Throughout the first set, Kyrgios was clearly the better player, breezing through his own service games while putting Tsitsipas under immense pressure on his own. But it sure is difficult to talk only about tennis with all of the drama that surrounds him.
