Kyrgios really ain't shyt. Dude is a perpetual a$$hole

Australia's Nick Kyrgios forfeited his second-round match at the Italian Open after walking off court against Norway's Casper Ruud.

The 24-year-old was in the deciding set when he was given a game penalty, reportedly for swearing, to trail 2-1.

He then kicked at a bottle, threw down his racquet, hurled a chair on to the court, picked up his bag and left.

Kyrgios has a history of fines for poor behaviour on court and in March clashed with a fan at the Miami Open.

Earlier this week he served underarm during victory Daniil Medvedev, while his actions on Thursday came as it emerged he said in a podcast interview that "could not stand" Novak Djokovic - who he described as "cringeworthy" - and called Rafael Nadal "super salty".

Id be nervous paying money to watch him play

He can hit every shot in the game but he could also do what you quoted and walk off after 3 games or just half ass a whole match

He should end up a multiple slam winner and he probably will never win one unless he pulls a goran

Nadal is a momentum/confidence player on clay. When he dominates the FO, its cause he put the work in dominating the other clay tourney's.

He can still win the FO, but the losses on HIS surface are very strange IMO.

Yea but we all gotta accept that he's getting older now. He'll be 33 by the time the FO is open. I still do think he needs to tone down his schedule and just preserve himself. After the Australian Open, he should just play Indian Wells and skip Miami and just go get rested and ready for the clay season. After the USO, he should just play the Masters events and the World Tour finals and let that be that.
