Nick Kyrgios smashes rackets after US Open 2022 Quarter Finals Loss
Nick Kyrgios has been known for his on-court tantrums and bad behavior. Still, the Australian went too far on Friday as he angrily smashed two rackets and hurled abuses at the chair umpire after losing his U.S. Open quarterfinal to Daniil Medvedev.
Kyrgios, defeated 6-3, 7-6(4), 6-3 by Medvedev, was not happy with the chair umpire’s decision to give him a time violation in the second set. The Australian was also not happy with the line calls throughout the match.
After losing the point, Kyrgios picked up his water bottle and smashed it on the court. He then took his frustration out on his racket, smashing it twice on the ground.
Kyrgios was given a warning for unsportsmanlike conduct, and he responded by hurling abuses at the chair umpire. “Are you kidding me? Every time I play here, I get f***ing bad calls,” Kyrgios said. “I don’t know why he was talking to me like I didn’t say anything wrong.”
Tomic’s response? He simply shrugged his shoulders.
Kyrgios’ behavior has been a hot topic of discussion in the tennis world over the past few months, with many questioning whether or not he has the maturity to handle the pressure that comes with being a top-ranked player.
