Kyrgios
#31
True, but there is always an extenuating circumstance offered as an excuse, even for Kyrgios and Tomic, but it won't save them!

Life being tough or feeling persecuted isn't a license to be a C@#$!

Kyrgios could be up against Norrie. Australia vs GBR in the final.

Kyrgios doesn't come across as a kent to me, Tomic does, a dumb one at that.

He might not be 24x7, but he has his moments!

Perhaps the major difference is that we all have moments at times, but most people remain a bit humble and apologise for indiscretions, this seems to be a feature commonly lacking in many professional sports people. They seem to have taken the positivity high confidence mindset thing a bit too far to become "never wrong"!

Your insinuation that Kyrgios has never apologised is wrong.

Again, I disagree but that's ok. I reckon he has admitted many times that he is far from perfect. But he also says he won't pretend to be some one who he isn't (what you see is what you get). I do however agree with his comments around the lack of support from past Aussie players. In this country, we are happy to give armed robbers, drug dealers, rapists and pedos a fair go and a second chance, but young sports people who's crime is acting like flogs from time to time are persona non grata for life.

Yes, it's poor form for past players not to support Nick.  I guess quite a few are just a little jealous that he has made it this far.

It's going to be a big ask but, if anyone can beat Djoker, it's Nick.

Djoker was very average last night from all reports, said he is worried about playing Nick. Hopefully the fresher Nick wins.

I watched the game Djokovic vs Norrie and Djokovic was very slow to start and both struggled to hold their service games early in the first set. They both missed simple shots throughout the entire match. Djokovic had moments of brilliance and moments of complete poor form. His match against Kyrgios will be a toss of the coin as a result. It could go either way. The player that has the better service game accuracy with their first serve will win the match. My stomach feeling is it is 55/45% in favour of the Serb. He has had more experience in hard battles and has played more tennis at Wimbledon. However nothing is certain but taxes and death. So toss a coin to take a guess yourselves.
