Nick Kyrgios has criticised Dominic Thiem after the World No.3 revealed his opposition to lower ranked players receiving money from the top 100 to help get them through this time period where Coronavirus affects every from the top and especially the bottom of the sport.

Kyrgios said that Thiem 'doesn't understand' why it is being utilised; he admitted himself that those in the higher echelons of the game are in a privileged position; so should be helping in this time.
“He still doesn’t understand the point,” Kyrgios said on Instagram about Thiem. “We at the top get paid far too much and there is not enough to go around.
“It’s about helping where we can, professional or unprofessional, put yourself in their shoes.”
