Cash lauds praise on Kyrgios: "There's no more talented player than Nick"

Cash said that he believes that having courtside coaching could help Kyrgios and that it won't just be the Aussie ace who uses it going forward.

"There's no more talented player than Nick," said Cash.

"Like he said, he clearly loves having his mates around, because it's a lot of fun. Most of us Aussies thrived in Davis Cup, we really loved it. We've grown up playing team sports and there's a lot less pressure when you've got someone on the side of the court helping you.

But part of tennis is being able to figure things out for yourself. You're out on the court as a gladiator, it's one-on-one. That to me is one of the greatest skills of tennis, which is why I'm very opposed to having coaches on the side of the court.

Having courtside coaching would almost certainly benefit Nick, and they're talking about doing some of that, it's being eased into the game more and more. Certainly it will never get to Wimbledon, but you'll see it more often.

I think it takes away from the great skill of tennis, and Nick is getting better at it, but being able to think on your feet is a key component of the game."

He went onto say that when Federer, Djokovic and Nadal all inevitably retire, he believes that Kyrgios could find himself in the mix for titles as long as he can manage his body.

"It's not easy to win a slam, there's not many going around. But when Djokovic, Federer and Nadal are gone, there's going to be a handful of guys putting their hands up for the slams. Those three can't last forever, although sometimes it seems that way!

But eventually they'll be gone. Nick's serve is one of the best in the game, so if he can manage his shoulder and his elbow he'll be right in the mix.
