Nick Kyrgios lost on the first round of the Citi Open in Washington and after the match, the Australian gave an insight into his mentality.
Nick Kyrgios is back to playing tennis but his tennis is far away from his best. The Australian seemed disinterested on the court showing very little emotion compared to usually and after the match, he gave an insight into his thoughts. He said:
“My head’s in the shed, to be honest. I didn’t play great. I know there are going to be a lot of people disappointed. I feel like I actually enjoyed my tennis more when it was so up and down. Like you see me today like I’m losing and I’m barely getting angry."
Kyrgios gave a bizarre interview ahead of the event saying he was not sure how long he was going to play tennis. He also admitted that every event feels like it's his last. After the loss in Washington he further asserted that he doesn't care that much anymore:
“I actually miss the days when I was losing and I was carrying on and I was getting fined and I was throwing my racquets. That just meant that I just cared a lot. I actually cared what was happening. Now I lose and I’m actually happy for the other guy.”
