[Other Sport] Nick Kyrgios

Is there a bigger prick in sport?

And this is just a week or two after throwing his racquet in Indian Wells when it nearly hit a ball boy. I am struggling to think of a bigger prick in sport right now with his pathetic tantrums. I bet he supports Palace.

Fantastic tennis player, bit of a loose cannon. The sport is better for having characters but Carlos Alcaraz is the future of tennis.

No doubting he’s a bit of a prick, but there’s something I quite like about his style. In a world of sport and in particular tennis, where the way people act and speak is so polished and manufactured, it’s nice to see someone prepared to be themselves.

Even if his natural personality is, as you put it, a bit prickish.

Maybe professionally, but there is one of those in every squash club I've ever played in!!

I used to watch quite a bit of tennis, but in recent years found it a bit predictable and boring. He is one player I would tune in to watch though. He can't be any worse than PL footballers diving and cheating and trying to get people booked etc. Krygios is a long way down my list if you start taking footballers into account.

He's not even much good, Grand Slam Semi-Finals

Tim Henman - 6

Nick Kyrios - Zero >

He's a prick. Could forgive him for it a bit (ala McEnroe) if it wasn't for the following:

- He sometimes endangers the safety of others with his antics
- He sometimes totally disrespects his opponent with his antics
- He's wasting his talent
- Those times when he's clearly only there to collect a pay check and simply doesn't even try

The guy must be a gamblers worst nightmare: when he concentrates for a whole match, he can beat anyone. When he switches off, he can beaten by anyone. And you never know who you're gonna get - switched on, switched off, or somewhere variably in between (sometimes even within a single match).

He is an arse. On the other hand, he did call the umpire an "absolute clown" which always raises a smile.

 

[Weststander]

A tedious bully.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Tennis needs more pricks.

 

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

Maybe HaHa?

TNBA

TTF

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

A tedious bully.

This.

 

[Gazwag]

I'd watch him any day of the week compared to Cockovic

He looks like a wa***r and is a w***r.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

I don't mind him.

Says what he thinks. Don't always agree, but he's ok

 

[Live by the sea]

Tennis is generally a middle class sport doesn’t usually attract yobs . Always the odd one of course.

 

[Surrey Phil]

He’s absolute box office. Never know what’s going to happen next. Tennis needs characters!

 

[LamieRobertson]

Fantastic

 

[nickjhs]

On the list of sporting pricks he is way down the list. On the other hand he was frigging brilliant during the 2020 bushfires and the lock downs.

 

[Lower West Stander]

Quite like him as well.

Tennis is right up there as a horrible middle class sport played by children of stockbrokers from the Home Counties.

I absolutely hate Wimbledon and anyone who sticks up two fingers at it and all it stands for is fine by me.
