Australian Open 2023: Nick Kyrgios long odds of a title but a dead cert to get up rivals’ nose
Nick Kyrgios is one of the favourites for the Australian Open 2023. Kyrgsios has a current world ranking of No.1. Last year he was ranked No115 and was knocked out in the second round by Daniil Medvedev. This year, he is ranked 21.
Nick Kyrgios is one of the favourites for the Australian Open. Kyrgs is no longer the player who was ranked No.115 a year ago. He is now the world No 21. His behaviour in the documentary Break Point was carefully choreographed. He cares about how he is perceived. The too-cool-for-tennis schtick fell away when he started winning matches and rising up the rankings. It hurt him when his behaviour hurt the fans. he wants to be the No 2 tennis player. for Australia. and for himself. in terms of media scrutiny. it's a day-to-day thing, day to day battle.
