Kyrgios: Murray better player than Djokovic. More scary than Federer, Nadal

[Backspin1183]

"When I played Roger, when I played Rafa, I wasn’t as scared of those guys as I was of Andy,” Kyrgios said.

“I knew that his game was a lot tougher for a guy like me to play, I knew he was going to make a lot of balls, so I felt so young when I played him the first couple of times.
“I didn’t really believe in my physicality.
“I knew that I couldn’t play long rallies with him and I knew I couldn’t last against him."

Kyrgios also compared Murray to Djokovic.

“I always tell him, I look at [Novak] Djokovic, I look at how many Grand Slams he has won and the results he has had and I’m just thinking … I always tell him ‘dude, you’re so much better than Djokovic, you should have a way better career’,” he added.

"I didn't really believe in my physicality." Thank God Greek Adonis Kyrgios is now so indestructible.

Actually trash talk is very good tactics against Djokovic. That's how Roddick got him so many times during his early years on the tour.

Actually Nick is Gen Z, and they have even a more minuscule attention span than Millennials. Nick was born in ‘95, totally Gen Z.

Lol, I'd be quite interested to know just what Kyrgios' problem with Djokovic is. I've noticed he'll often talk about Federer and Nadal and how great they are and leave his name out of the conversation entirely and when he does talk about him he'll spout nonsense such as Murray supposedly being the much better player. I doubt it's anything to do with the way Djokovic plays so the only thing I can ascribe it to is some aspect of his personality that for whatever reason really gets up the crack of Kyrgios' @rse. Makes Novak's sensational comeback last year all the more sweet.

I do wonder how high Kyrgios is sometimes.
