Controversial Moments of Nick Kyrgios
Nick Kyrgios, one of the most controversial characters in the tennis world, faced Novak Djokovic in the first grand slam final of his career. The BBC announcer covering the match had to apologize frequently due to Kyrgios’ abusive speech.

However, the 27-year-old racket also makes a name for itself with its talent despite its combative structure. British tennis star Greg Rusedski says for him, “He is at least as talented as Federer or McEnroe, maybe more so than them.”

McEnroe, a name who has faced the judges many times throughout his entire career, also said on the BBC broadcast before the match that this was the final that excited him the most. During this tournament, Kyrgios also came up with accusations that he was violent to an ex-girlfriend. The star racket will appear in court in Australia.
