I’m starting to become convinced kyrgios never gets it figured out and won’t come close to realizing his potential.

he's 23 so you hope for his sake he does, but odds are he doesn't. it's insane how much talent he has put to waste. no reason for him not to be a top 10 player.

I was trying to explain Nick to a newbie in a few short texts and just went with insane, full of talent, probably manic depressive, one of the most exciting guys to watch when he doesn't tank.

Crazy seeing a 39 year old Patty Schnyder still playing. I sat courtside and watched her lose the Rome SF to Conchita Martinez in 1997

Yeah, I was shocked to see Schnyder and Zvonareva playing. What year is this?

Admittedly I'm a Fed fan but damn how can you not like the guy with his conversation with McEnroe.

Teetsy/Medvedev should be fun. They don't like each other: LINK

This article in the nytimes about Kyrgios from last year does confirm what poster Jim Rockford noted in his Kyrgios thread.

LINK

It also has gems like these:

quote:

[Kyrgios was] working recently with a part-time coach, Sebastien Grosjean, and reached the Cincinnati final last week in impressive fashion. After his loss Wednesday, he said he did not think that partnership would last much longer.

“He deserves a player who’s better dedicated than me,” Kyrgios said. “I’m not dedicated to the game a lot. I’m not that guy.”

He just got a break. If he can consolidate here, he'll just be down two sets to one.

Is there any way to watch the teetsy match other than ESPN+, which I'm not buying.
