‘We Can Only Hope Why Is He Not 30 Already’- Nick Kyrgios’ Wild Statement on Retirement Forces a Unanimous Verdict From Tennis Fans

The Australian tennis professional Nick Kyrgios’s life isn’t all about tennis. He doesn’t mind missing seasons if his mind isn’t in the right state or his body isn’t prepared enough for the pressure. For example, this year only he sat out the entire clay swing. Therefore, fans are somewhat aware that Kyrgios might not linger around after playing tennis to his heart’s content. Though the recent revelation from his end sparked debate amongst fans.

The 27-year-old, who made his debut in the Grand Slam finals this year only, has released a statement about his retirement. Although Kyrgios isn’t stern on the decision, he is surely considering the option of hanging his racket after he turns 30.

Are tennis fans happy that Nick Kyrgios won’t be around for long?

The Aussie during a Q and A session on Instagram very casually yet clearly disclosed his intentions. He wrote, “Honestly, I probably won’t (play past 30).”

“I wanna be able to not be bothered. Probably gonna go to my house in Bahamas and just sit and do nothing,” he added. Upon stumbling on this piece, fans flooded social media. Here’s how his decision is perceived. While some opted for a sarcastic tone and wrote stuff like. “Good for tennis.”

Others were just straight-up happy about him leaving the sport within the span of years.

Further, one fan was ready to accept the fact that Kyrgios would actually do so. As he shared a GIF stating, “I’ve fallen for that trap before.”

Whereas a fan was just irked at the former World No 13’s take and questioned. “Why do you earn?? So that you can sit and do nothing.”

One might wonder where the resistance and hate against this player are coming from. Well, it’s pretty much because of the way he presents himself. In this gentlemen’s game, he built a reputation of an angry, unrespectful entity that often indulges in banters.
