Nick Kyrgios was very inspired in his match against Broady and that's very good news for tennis fans in Melbourne as they will get to see him take on Medvedev next.
The dynamic Aussie showcased his repertoire of trick shots throughout his 6-4, 6-4, 6-3 victory, bringing the raucous crowd to their feet with his majestic hitting as he reached the second round in Melbourne for the eighth time. On the match, Kyrgios said:
"I served well today. I don’t know what I have done to this crowd as you guys are a zoo now. I am super happy to be here again. We have all had a tough couple of years, so just to be back at Aussie Open and be back here in front of you guys [is great].”
Things don't get any easier for Kyrgios who is set to play Medvedev. It promises to be a brutal match where the crowd will be a factor. As noted by Kyrgios himself, they go crazy whenever he plays and with Medvedev's track record with crowds, it could get dicey. On the matchup, Kyrgios said:
“He is an amazing player. I knew he was going to do some amazing things in this sport. He was won a Grand Slam. I am just going to enjoy it tonight though.”
