2022 Miami Masters 4R: [WC] Nick Kyrgios (AUS) vs [9] Jannik Sinner (ITA)

[Rattie]

It’s like watching a three year old, stamping his feet in tantrum because he can’t have everything his own way!

 

[mike danny]

Nick truly is a clown if he doesn't get that break back.

 

[Nate7-5]

Lets see how much more Carlos can take

 

[_phantom]

It's intentional. If he simply kept his head down and then lost straight up he wouldn't have any excuses for the L.

Instead he creates a circus and then blames the circus for the loss.

It's all about protecting his own ego.

And he gets the attention anyway. Any publicity is good publicity.

 

[Kralingen]

Carlos really is a glutton for punishment man lol

He loves getting yelled at by players I'm convinced.

 

[MadariKatu]

Kyrgios was not happy with music, walkie-talkie sound from Bernardes (stupid mistake by the umpire). Then he (according to Bernardes) talked about him (Bernardes) with someone in the crowd.

But is that a reason for a warning? Kyrgios threw the racquet, and then looked at Bernardes as if he was scared of a warning, which he didn't get for racquet abuse, but then gets for talking to the audience? It feels very strange to me. Given that it was the same umpire who gave him a point penalty in IW in a tie-break... you'd think it'd be different. At least it seamed that way when there wasn't a penalty for the racquet abuse; I thought Bernardes was trying to manage the situation and then it escalated like hell.

 

[onefineday]

Sinner is a pro. His face just says 'whatever.'

 

[TheNachoMan]

This is fun though right? That's why we watch Nick. And occasionally he absolutely blows the best players in the world off the court. But ultimately, it's all entertainment

Nick has a career in WWE if he ever wants it. He knows how to play with a crowd. lol

 

[Wander]

I wouldn't recommend getting a game penalty when you're about to serve if your name is Nick Kyrgios.

 

[clayqueen]

Why are spectators so happy when a player gives them a smashed racquet? What do they do with them?

 

[ojo rojo]

He's too predictable, so its not fun, because we've seen it all before. He has a one-dimensional personality.

Pro tennis players are not known for their exciting personalities last time I checked

 

[Hamnavoe]

I hope to see a "Fakeness of the ATP" update in the wake of this match.

Sinner is a man, while his opponent is a nancy boy

But most players have a full range of responses to situations, whereas Kyrgios only has one response - anger, so very predictable.

Post on Instagram. Gain likes.

Whatever Nick is doing it works. I'm only watching to see if he gets defaulted.

I’ve often thought that. I don’t want your rubbish would be my response.

Kyrgios is also very apathetic at times. He’s not always angry

Still have one hanging on a hook

 

[MadariKatu]

Sinner is handling the situation like a champ!

 

[clayqueen]

Whose was it?

 

[Arak]

Gentlemen, I know you’re against me, but please some respect.

what an idiot!

As Mayweather said, “I don’t care if you’re watching to see me lose, as long as you’re watching”

 

[President]

Horrible behavior from Kyrgios.

 

[Ronaldo]

Had a poppin' fresh grip

 

[clayqueen]

Kyrgios doesn't deserve a WC ever.

 

[Rattie]

Good for young Jannik for staying focussed.

 

[onefineday]

Kyrgios is basically rude. Ok the umpire messed up. Big deal. Generally, he's a good umpire. Nick is always crying that people hold his mistakes against him.

 

[AnOctorokForDinner]

Quite a phunneh situation when there have been no breaks but Salohcin is down a break.

 

[Kralingen]

This has become farcical, Bernardes calling security to escort people out lol

 

[rainingaces]

Carlos will incite a riot if he ends the match with another penalty.

 

[Deleted member 788697]

Its quite a small crowd in the Sinner-Kyrgios match, very large gaps in the stands at each end of the court.
The sides are fairly full, but not the ends....

 

[TheNachoMan]

Kyrgios doesn't deserve a WC ever.

He’s the biggest attraction in tennis besides the big 3. He’ll get all the WCs he wants

 

[Nate7-5]

Sinner deserves a lot of credit for staying composed through this, cant be easy

 

[onefineday]

Gentlemen, I know you’re against me, but please some respect.

what an idiot!

He's just standing up for himself.

 

[clayqueen]

Sadly, me too.

 

[Ace of Aces]

Kyrgios is also very apathetic at times. He’s not always angry

He does the “you didn’t really beat me, I just didn’t care” act often when pushed by a non elite player. Fortunately, it counts all the same.

 

[Ronaldo]

Whose was it?

Ex-partner

 

[RyanRF]

Kyrgios doesn't deserve a WC ever.

I mean....

The purpose of WC is for tournaments to bring in players that the fans want to see.

... so unfortunately based on that Nick is going to get WC's whenever he wants.

 

[onefineday]

Oh Sinner moved to the net. I've been watching him a lot lately and not really seen him do that.

 

[ojo rojo]

Kyrgios is also very apathetic at times. He’s not always angry

Agree. Most of the time. And the so-called anger is just poorly managed frustration. Still though, A.B.Z.

I like your dog bro.

 

[vive le beau jeu !]

Game penalty now lol, what an arse

ok... that's what i suspected when i checked the stats and saw 3-1 with a 0% BP conversion rate for both players
most logical explanation when kyrgios is one of the players...

 

[Rattie]

Guilty

 

[RyanRF]

I'll let him know.

 

[Third Serve]

Can’t see the match, what’s going on?

It’s your standard Nick Kyrgios match, a beautiful mess.
