Hours after losing in singles R4, Kyrgios and Kokkinakis qualify for the semifinals in doubles. They keep beating the best doubles teams in the world. The AusOpen champs are now 9-1 in 2022
Hours after his irritable and feisty exit from the singles bracket of the Miami Open, Nick Kyrgios regained his composure enough to help him and Thanasi Kokkinakis through to the semi-finals of the men's doubles.
Kyrgios had ample time to get his head back in the game after an extraordinary blow-up at chair umpire Carlos Bernades during the 7-6, 6-3 loss to Jannik Sinner. The third-seeded duo of Horacio Zeballos and Marcel Granollers were no match for the Australian Open champions, going down 7-5, 6-2 as the Aussie duo turn their full attention to the doubles crown.

It was a remarkable turnaround for Kyrgios, who hours earlier earned two penalty points, berated the crowd and teetered on the edge of disqualification against Sinner. Despite the impressive result in the doubles, setting up a semi-final clash against the winner of Rajeev Ram and Joe Salisbury or wildcard duo John Isner and Hubert Hurkacz, Kyrgios was evidently still seething about how his singles match had unfolded.
