Nick Kyrgios is known for not having a coach and in a recent interview admitted it is a waste of money as they can't change how he goes about his game.

Kyrgios has attracted offers from numerous figures wanting to work alongside him on the Tour, including John McEnroe and Boris Becker but has declined them all.

“Personally, I think (hiring a coach) is a little bit of a waste of money ‘cause I think they get paid way too much,” Kyrgios said during a podcast with Elliot Loney.

“And, for me, I don’t have a goal of winning Grand Slams. I just want to do it my way, have fun with it and just play.

“So to get a coach for me is pointless because I don’t want to waste their time almost.”

“I just don’t think a coach is ready – and I’m not going to put them through it too ‘cause it would just be a nightmare,” he explained.

“Where I’m at my career now, it’s just too far gone, I think for a coach, ‘cause I’m too set in my ways and I just don’t like to listen to advice, to be honest.”
