Nick Kyrgios discussed how a certain part of his life being missing affected his early tennis career on the latest episode of the No Boundaries podcast.
Kyrgios opened up on how 'sexual frustration' played a part in his athletic performance on the tennis court due to being away for months on end.
Towards the height of his career, he has dated Russian tennis star, Anna Kalinskaya and Ajla Tomljanovic who is now dating Matteo Berrettini.
"With my first girlfriend, I was away from her for six months at a time," he explained on his podcast, No Boundaries.
"When you're trying to perform at the highest level, you start missing someone like emotionally, physically and it becomes a sexual frustration.
"I'm on court and I can't play because I'm a bit horny, if you know what I mean.
"It doesn't matter if you're in an office job – if you're not seeing your significant other, it affects you, your work, your mood, everything.
"I was the moodiest motherf***** when I was away from my missus for that long."
