It all started when his neighbor took to Facebook to share the inconvenience caused due to Kyrgios’ incorrect car parking. The neighbor shared a series of pictures of Kyrgios’ lime green Tesla Model X car, saying, “Looking for some advice here, it’s a tricky one, we have a car share allocated spot right out the front of our apartment building. Recently a very well known famous and quite notorious tennis player has decided that he is somehow entitled to park in it with his own vehicle.”
