Kyrgios left impressed with and supports Sock amid pickleball debut Quarter-Final run

Nick Kyrgios praised his colleague Jack Sock after watching his performance in pickleball.

In recent months, pickleball has garnered increasing interest from fans, partly due to the presence of current and former tennis players competing in exhibitions of this sport. Kyrgios' interest in pickleball is not new, as he is a co-owner of the Miami Pickleball Club along with former world No. 1 Naomi Osaka and American Mardy Fish.

This time it was American player Jack Sock who played on ESPN, and Kyrgios shared a video of the former world No. 8 playing on his Instagram story, writing:

"My boy @jack.sock already making pickle ball plays on ESPN."

Kyrgios hasn’t played in any tournaments in 2023 due to a left knee injury. There is no set date for the Wimbledon 2022 finalist's return, although it's been normal in his career to skip the clay season and he could come back during the grass season.
