Despite the ‘Undisputed Goat’ Tag, Nick Kyrgios Shares One Novak Djokovic Memory That He Wishes to Overturn ‘Could’ve Given Me..’

With his racket or with his words, Nick Kyrgios knows how to rule the Tennis court. Even though the 28-year-old tennis player has been out of the tennis circuit for almost a year now, he has kept himself connected to the sport with his rattling opinions and endlessly entertaining off-court adventures. The Australian is yet to secure his first Grand Slam victory, but there was a brief moment when he came close to seizing the significant triumph.

Unfortunately, Novak Djokovic gave him tough competition and took the 2022 Wimbledon title home by defeating him in the championship round. Although he has always regarded Djokovic as a strong GOAT contender, there is one Djokovic memory that he finds the most painful. Kyrgios recently recalled a time when the 24-time Grand Slam champion upset him the most.

Recently, during his walk down the Tennis Channel’s Hall of Champs lane, Kyrgios talked about players including Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Serena Williams. At the same time, he also came across the 36-year-old Serbian tennis player’s picture and talked about one complaint that he has for Djokovic. He stated, “Novak Djokovic, undisputed GOAT in my opinion. What a player could’ve given me that Wimbledon final. Would’ve been nice.” 

Although he tagged him as the ‘Undisputed GOAT,’ he also talked about his emotions regarding the last encounter. Both of them last faced each other in the 2022 Wimbledon final, where the world’s number-one-ranked tennis player defeated him and claimed the victory under his name.

As the Aussie tried his best to claim his first major title, he pulled Djokovic’s leg, addressing that even after having 24 Grand Slam titles in his pocket, he could have left the Wimbledon title for him. Apart from that, recently she also dished out a major Rodger Federer and Rafael Nadal regret that he has carried while making a strong Djokovic claim.

Nick Kyrgios opened up about a major regret 

The former 13th-ranked tennis player, in a candid conversation with the Tennis Channel, talked about how he could have never faced Federer and Nadal on the court, making his tennis journey even easier. He said, “I wish I could turn back the clock, maybe ten years, and I wish I was coming up during this time so that I didn’t have to deal with prime Federer and Nadal.” 

Along with that, she also highlighted how even if the Serbian tennis player faces a downfall in the athletic front, there are Alcaraz and other rising players who are ready to give tough competition. But at the same time, the 36-year-old is in no mood to slow down or change the flow of his course.
