Kyrgios pays Djokovic and says he “hates commenting on his matches”

Nick Kyrgios is still talking about him. After a year and a half of absence, the Australian is getting closer to a return to competition. While he aims to return for 2025, the giant took advantage of his break to stay in touch with the world of Tennis, by becoming a commentator. A role that pleases him, but which also depends on the quality of the meetings. Guest of the show The Sit-Downproduced by the Australian Open, Kyrgios admitted that he did not like commenting on Novak Djokovic, especially at the start of the tournament.

“Do you like keeping me here?” »

He thus believes that the Serb can quickly lose the thread and drag out the match, which he had controlled until then: “I've commented on a lot of Novak's matches and he frustrates me to no end because I hate doing his matches at the start of Grand Slam tournaments. He plays with his opponent for four hours and I think to myself that I could have been at the hotel an hour and a half ago while he leads 2 sets 0. Then he loses the third set and starts complaining, then he goes to the locker room, and there's a 7–6 in the fourth set and I'm like 'dude, do you like keeping me here', because he knows I'm here, and he starts to deconcentrate. He frustrates me to no end, I hate doing Novak matches. » A feeling that many spectators could share. Whatever happens, the Serbian is almost always there and intends to return to Grand Slam victory, after a blank year in 2024.
