"I have spent my entire life trying to be something that I'm not": Nick Kyrgios recalls moment he found happiness as a tennis player"
ATPThursday, 29 February 2024 at 05:30
Australia’s tennis star Nick Kyrgios has stated that he spent
all his life to become something he was not. The 28-year-old is famous for
being outspoken and has come under some criticism as well over the years for his
behaviour on and off the court.
Kyrgios was recently quoted in a report where he stated that
he started to find happiness when he behaved like himself instead of becoming
something he was not.
“I actually have spent my entire life trying to be something
that I'm not, which was being a classy tennis player," he said. "But
then when I started to be myself, I was starting to find some happiness."
Kyrgios is currently spending time on the sidelines as he
continues to recover from an injury sustained in the second half of 2022. It
was because of this reason he ended up missing all four Grand Slams.
Kyrgios’ fans will be hoping that the former world number 10
will return to his very best soon, just like he was before he got injured.
The Canberra-born had
a great season in 2022 where he played in his maiden and till now the only
Grand Slam final at Wimbledon where he lost to the current world number one
Serbia’s Novak Djokovic with a score of 4–6, 6–3, 6–4, 7–6.

- My money is simply on fatigue. She's not the compact 'muscle-man'-type like perhaps Sabalenka, Swiatek or Sakkari. She's a player desperately longing for some kind of Djokovic rhythm. She should skip lots to win more majors. And the rumour I thought wasn't it Long Covid?MrAndreeva10-05-2024
- If there is some other reason, like exhaustion or self-preservation by not playing in consecutive tourneys, then simply say so. There's no shame in self preservation. Since the WTA obviously does not seriously consider a player's physical and mental stress as they schedule back-to-back majors, it's okay to adhere to such a healthy agenda and admit it. The illness thing is kind of suspect at this point; if only because of the timing pattern.
mandoist10-05-2024 - So, Elena Rybakina has again withdrawn due to illness (in Rome). Fans are concerned if this is truly a gastrointestinal issue. Why the secrecy? Is it truly an illness causing these withdrawals? It may be helpful -- even encouraging -- for others whom also suffer whatever illness is ongoing here to know what she is dealing with; and how. A form of Colitis? Ulcers? What's up? Timing has been last minute. It's a bummer all around.mandoist10-05-2024
- Tennis is ridiculous to maintain the tradition of silence. If they can play in open courts like Rome with all the noise from each court they surely could survive cheering, etc., during play (i.e., a singles match with only a 2 meter fence between them and a men's doubles -- and very loud noise from each side).mandoist10-05-2024
