Nick Kyrgios is a petulant fouled mouthed disgrace and the only thing that went wrong was the Umpire's failure to disqualify Kyrgios from Wimbledon...Red Baron.

A report of the a..hole's behaviour follows:




Nick Kyrgios has insisted he will not drop his brash attitude after the volatile Australian's latest outburst during his Wimbledon first-round rout of Diego Schwartzman.

Kyrgios was back at Wimbledon 12 months after he stunned Rafael Nadal in a memorable fourth-round upset that made him the lowest-ranked player to beat a world number one at a major for 22 years.

On his return, Kyrgios, who eventually bowed out in the quarter-finals last year, crushed Schwartzman 6-0, 6-2, 7-6 (8-6) in just 85 minutes to set up a second-round meeting with another Argentine, Juan Monaco, after he beat Germany's Florian Mayer 6-1, 6-2, 6-4.

But Kyrgios' emphatic victory was marred by a heated discussion with umpire Mohamed Lahyani over a line call that Kyrgios felt came as he was hitting a deep ball, affecting his shot, but the umpire disagreed.

That prompted the 20-year-old to threaten to sit in his chair until the supervisor came out to make a ruling - a threat that turned out to be empty as he picked up his racket and balls after about 45 seconds of discussion. He also shouted out "dirty scum".

Kyrgios was adamant he was directing the abuse at himself, but the unsavoury incident only added to the perception the world number 29, already renowned for his flamboyant style on and off court, has an attitude problem.

The Canberra native, who split with long-time coach Todd Larkham just before Wimbledon, was hardly repentant when quizzed about his outburst at his post-match media conference.

"I wasn't referring to the ref at all there. Yeah, it was towards myself. Obviously I knew you guys were going to ask me about that," he said.

"I'm not too fussed about the call to be honest, but if it was a more crucial time in the match, or deeper in the tournament, that could swing things.

"It shouldn't be something that can be taken lightly. You've got to make the right call there.

"It wouldn't bother me one bit if they fine me."

Pressed by reporters on why he would describe himself in such fashion, Kyrgios grew agitated, saying: "Because I can. Why are you so caught up about the question?"


Can you believe what a dead sh.t we have representing our Country? He should be exported to Greece where his worth is about as much as their economy right now...Red Baron

Was towards himself

The Umpire, even if he made a bad call, did not derserve the unashamed vitriol thatKrygios poured out like a 'big girl's blouse'.

You would never have seen a Rod Laver or Ken Roswell or John Newcombe, or Pat Rafter behave like that. Never...ever.

Standards have dropped to an all time low because in Laver's day, that just simply would not have happened. The players would have copped it sweet, realising that sometimes the odd bad call goes your way.

It shows Unforgiven, how little you know about the game of Tennis and its history.

You are an apologist for a dead sh.t like Krygios. He deserved a belt in his potty mouth.

Agree he needs a kick up the Khyber Pass

But he is not the first to behave like this and some of the other bad boys have turned out Ok

I remember Layton Hewitt was a little controversial in his younger days .. then all the knobs started telling him he was a bad sport because he yelled out 'come on'  so he stopped displaying his passion. Stopped winning too.


Passion is an integral part of sport. You use whatever emotions you need to win, be they anger, disappointment, revenge etc  anything that gives you that slight edge you need to win.

I'm pretty sure Krygios doesn't play because he cares what you think Red, he plays to win.

Well Redneck yesterday he wanted to sit on the sideline 'on strike' until  he got his way...Leyton Hewitt never tried that one  nor did he slag the umpire.

Obvious to me but apparently lost in translation for you Aussie.

An Australian is representing Australia when they are part of a recognised Australian Team.  He is at Wimbledon for himself, not Australia.

Historically, even at the Olympic Games, contestants were/are not representing their Country.  They were/are there as themselves, not as a duly nominated representatives of this Country.
