He's neither magician nor idiot. Just a frustrating bloke who seems destined to waste his talent. He's having something of a purple patch now, but that won't last long. That dinky underarm serve proves nothing.

If his efforts are wilful doesn't that make him a liar as well as a cheat, the Donald Trump of tennis?
I'm not sure we need another like that, but Kyrgios if nothing else is wasteful because he has all the talent needed to be a superstar!

Yes, a legitimate and effective tactic when the receiver is standing metres behind the baseline. He doesn’t need to use it often to have opponents thinking about it when they stand back to take the sting out of his normal serves.
I also think that going for some unusual shots may help Nick to keep his focus and intensity.

No.
If he was smart he'd be No.1
He has the ability but the brain lets him down.

Yes, and the other bent on the under-arm serve tactic is "a55hol3 with a touch of laziness!"
If it's smart Trevor Chappell must be a genius!

It's not smart but it takes skill to disguise and execute.
