"Who would have thought" - Tsitsipas and Kyrgios set to co-exist despite rivalry after being paired in Diriyah Tennis Cup doubles

Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas will share the court tonight in Saudi Arabia as they play a doubles match together against Hurkacz and Stricker.

In a funny twist of the draw, Kyrgios and Tsitsipas both lost their opening matches at the Diriyah Tennis Cup which set them up to play some doubles at the event. It was not guaranteed that they would be paired up but they were with both expressing amusement at the situation. The duo shared the court at Wimbledon in a heated clash where both had unsportsmanlike moments.

They extended their rivalry in the press conference with both having choice words for the other. Ahead of tonight, Kyrgios reacted on social media by writing:

"Doubles with Tsitsi tonight."

He added some emojis signalling that he wasn't going to speak anything else on it.

Tsitsipas also reacted to it by retweeting that and adding:

"Who would have thought"

It is set to begin at 19:30 CET at the earliest.
