Things are bound to go beyond everyone’s expectations when Nick Kyrgios takes the stage. He has established a brotherhood with Novak Djokovic, making sure to mince no words in retaliating to the critics. And this time, he hit two birds with one stone, as he suggested a little something to the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton. As he takes an indirect shot at Roger Federer, he tries to charm the princess!
The Duchess is back at Wimbledon in what is her 2nd public appearance is since her cancer diagnosis. While her elegant look and strong dedication to her duties charmed everyone, Kyrgios loves to do things the other way around. He took to the opportunity to try to charm the Duchess herself with his bad boy ways in hopes of taking over Roger Federer’s charisma.
In a post shared by Metro, Kyrgios is seen donning a sharp look as he offered to coach the Princess of Wales instead of the 20-time Grand Slam champion, Federer. He said, “‘It’ll be more fun being coached by me than it would by [Roger] Federer”.Though whether the charm worked or not is unclear, he sure did not leave any stone unturned, making it a fun evening for everyone with his boastful ways. But Wimbledon and Federer are synonyms and no Wimbledon talk would be complete without the 8-time Grand Slam champion featuring in it.
