Nick Kyrgios will play Rafael Nadal in the Wimbledon semifinals and he feels it's the match everybody wants to see.
Kyrgios is widely regarded as one of the top talents in the game outside the 'Big 3' of Roger Federer, Nadal and Novak Djokovic. However, his temperament has always been suspect, and he has a penchant for stirring up controversies both on and off the court. Nadal, meanwhile, prefers to let his racquet do all the talking and is a soft-spoken person off the court.
He said:
"It is very special to face Rafa here. We've had some real battles on Centre Court , he won one against me, and I won another. Two completely different personalities. I feel like we respect each other a lot. It is a game that everyone wants to see. Probably the most-watched game of all time. I have to make sure my body is prepared.”
In the pair's first clash at Wimbledon eight years ago, a 19-year-old Kyrgios, making his tournament debut, stunned Nadal in the fourth round. Five years later, though, the two-time Wimbledon winner returned the favor, beating Kyrgios in the second round.
