Kyrgios weighs in on fans being ejected for booing Djokovic: "You've paid money to watch a guy play, it's contradictory if you go there and be a clown about it"

Nick Kyrgios doesn't understand fans that buy a ticket to enter a stadium and watch a Djokovic match only to get kicked out for booing him.

Kyrgios and Djokovic played a practice match in Melbourne once again showing how well they get along now and after the match, Kyrgios spoke to the media. He heavily praised Djokovic which is in stark contrast to how he saw him only a few years ago. The height of the animosity was at the start of the pandemic.

After the match, Kyrgios said:

"I would just say that Novak is here and he hasn't made any rules. All he wants to do is put on a show. He's chasing things that athletes are rarely able to chase. He's one of the greatest athletes of all time, not just on the tennis court. He's here to put on a show for Melbourne itself. I think as fans, we should be appreciating him."

He added:

"Obviously, I know that there are going to be fans that are not going to want him to win, but I think they can't cross that line as fans. You guys have paid money to watch a guy play. It's pretty contradictory if you're going to go there and be a clown about it. You've got to respect him a little bit at the end of the day because he's one of the best," he said.
