Former tennis player Boris Becker and Australian Nick Kyrgios clashed violently on social networks.
Failing to play tennis, Nick Kyrgios, injured and away from the courts for a year, is still very active on social networks. The fiery Australian had a violent altercation with the German on X. In The Athleticthe Wimbledon 2022 finalist compared current tennis with that of the 1980s and 1990s and he estimated that his sport “ was so slow back then » taking Boris Becker as an example. “ I looked at Boris Becker and I’m not saying they weren’t good in their time, but to say they would be just as good now is absurd (…) It was a whole different game. […] Now you have to serve 220 km/h, because if you serve less than 220, Djokovic eats you alive. Lleyton Hewitt destroyed Sampras at the US Open. It was the first prototype of someone capable of returning to service. »
The winner of six Grand Slams did not like Kyrgios’ strong opinion at all and he made it known on X: “ Nick has been making a lot of noise about tennis lately! ? !, Why is he talking about a sport he apparently hates… Check the facts Nick has never won a major tournament as a player or coach (yes in doubles 1), so where does his credibility come from ? »
And Hoger Rune’s coach advises Kyrgios to talk to his fans “ many things but not tennis » And the response from the fiery Aussie was not long in coming… «Hahahaha, this guy talks about credibility… Last time I checked, you were the one hiding assets, right?“, replied Kyrgios, referring to the conviction for tax fraud of Becker, imprisoned for a few months in a London penitentiary center in 2022.
