Nick Kyrgios had a heated exchange with a reporter following his round two win over Filip Krajinovic quickly shutting down talks about round one.

The Australian star landed himself in hot water for spitting in the direction of a spectator as well as heavily criticising one of the elder umpires for their eyesight, before doubling down on his stance during his chat with the press. All of that happened in the first round encounter and one report was keen to talk about it. Kyrgios was not.

"Why would you be asking me a question about two days ago? Is it because you have no story for today? I played Filip Krajinovic today. Do you not want to know how I played today?" asked Kyrgios.

To which the journo replied: "Well I saw you play today, you were fantastic."

"So why don't you ask my about it?" he responded.

"Because there's an investigation... it involves you." she explained.

But Kyrgios wasn't having a bar of it, returning serve.

"And I'm still in Wimbledon right now, so let's talk about that."
