‘Not Very Well at the Moment’- Nick Kyrgios Discloses Heart-Breaking Details About His Parents

Nick Kyrgios, after registering his first ever Grand Slam finals visit, geared up for the American swing. He first swept the Citi Open by winning both the singles and doubles trophy. Following that, riding high on form, he entered the Canadian Masters.

There he outclassed some high-caliber players such as the world No.1 Daniil Medvedev to reach the quarterfinals. However, in the match against Hubert Hurkacz, Kyrgios’ long trip took a toll on him and resulted in a bitter defeat. While speaking to the press, he opened up about the same and shared his worries.

Nick Kyrgios’ biggest concern

Kyrgios, who carried noteworthy runs winning 15 out of his last 16 matches, crumbled at the quarterfinals. When asked about the same said, “I honestly don’t care [about the winning streak ending]. I have been on the road for nearly three months and I’ve been away from home, away from my mom who is in hospital, away from my dad. They’re not very well at the moment.” The former world No. 13 incurred a 7-6(4) 6-7(5) 6-1 loss against the Pole.

Thereafter, he added, “When I am on the road, I just want to put in good performances and make it worthwhile being here. I don’t care about records and that sort of stuff.” The Aussie arrived after the clay court season and stormed the greens of London. If things go well, he will return to his nation after the last Grand Slam of the season only.
