Australian Open 2017

[Thryleon]

It would have been nice if you had acknowledged that Kyrgios was officially fined by the ATP for tanking at the Shanghai Masters and suspended for 8 weeks and he apologised.  He is the first player to be suspended for behavioural issues since McEnroe in 1987.  Other players have been fined for tanking (e.g. Safin) but their behaviour didn't draw a suspension.  So as he's a "convicted" tanker, I don't need to convince you he tanks when he walks to the chair while his opponent is in his service action as he did in his loss at the AO.  I'm just putting it out there.  But if Kyrgios feels it's unfair for tennis fans to think, "Here he goes again", he would seem to be in the same position as the old guy in this joke:

If he has to fight his tanking past every time, then it's clear people will always have an axe to grind against why they dislike him.

it was only a couple of years back you could substitute tomic for Kyrgios with the exact same criticism.

He pulled out of one match with an injury.
