that handshake

Nadal don't got no respect for this fool

On cue, this dikkhead blows the easy overhand to open the tiebreak. I can't stand this guy.

Why can't you stand him?

Waste of talent and has a horrible attitude. He should be the best player on the tour.

People online were complaining about Nadal's draw...man the matches have to be played, anyone can be beat on any day. Getting mad over a draw was dumb. Thiem and Cilic both out already

Also, Kyrgios is actually a huge wild card above all on a good day (and on grass). Before that match, he was 3-3 against Nadal. And he's actually 2-0 against Nole (but 1-5 against Fed and Murray)

I feel like part of dude's behavior is that, although supremely talented, he's probably not that good. And that IDGAF attitude is a way of not being found out if he was to be super serious. So now, dude is a bit safe because people will always say he'll never reach his full potential because of his attitude but maybe, it's also because he can't go higher anyway and he's putting on a show to hide that.

But I'm probably reaching

let's not get carried away

It's over

let's not get carried away

I kinda agree with the poster who said it's all an act to keep from showing he's as good as he'll ever be and that really isn't good enough, so make people think it's attitude holding you back.

Coco is in trouble

Coco is in trouble

she's about to lose today but it's been a good showing for her. she just couldn't get out that rut she got herself into when she got broken in the first set.

Yes..this will be an excellent learning experience for her. I think Herzog is just hitting with more power and CoCo isnt serving or moving as well as her previous matches. Im happy for CoCo and will be following her progress in the future

I mean she is 15, so expecting that kinda championship resolve is a bit much you take these L's and comeback better because of them or you never get over them, she'll have to answer that question herself

I'll say, I think she should focus more on Tennis than her schooling (I get it but still)

low key, the moment just got to her. I BET if she played earlier in the day and didn't have to sit around in her thoughts, she woulda been fine today. Her mental strength will come with age
