No shot today.

Brandon is a good player, making it to the second week of a slam will be great for his confidence.

🤮 🤮 🤮 and I don’t care if he’s good for the game of tennis, he’s disgusting and I think people more like Roger Federer are soooooooo much better for the game. Class through and through. JMHO.

He's a big faker. Always has a planned excuse for a potential loss.

Just ask McEnroe - he totally disbelieves anything Kyrgios says. Great tennis skills, but a horrible person for tennis.

Kyrgios should take note how badly all the previous greats talk about him. Dayum, if even McEnroe doesn’t like you…

he doesn’t need to - since his lack of any physical training leads to lots of real injuries.

I’m not watching this match - I’m behind in todays play and watching the matches not on Centre Court first.
