Nick Kyrgios: A Character Misunderstood.
Despite Nick Kyrgios’s unquestionable talent, he’s often made headlines for the wrong reasons. He’s engaged in spats via social media, sparred with umpires, frequently admitted to partying into the early hours and skipping training and when asked why he hasn’t had a coach for more than five years, he’s referred to them as a “waste of money”.
However, with his unorthodox playing style and unpredictable temperament, there’s no doubting the entertainment factor he brings to the game.
Debates rage between those who think Kyrgios is a bad role model, and those who say he brings character to a sport sometimes lacking in it – but behind the overblown furores and the underarm serves, is there a man deserving of some reappraisal?
