well... bad day, i guess !
lost his bags, and cherry on the cake: got tested !
(people should not "tweet" in the heat of the moment !)

so he'll play in barcelona ? that's a good news !

It's good to know he's going to be playing an event soon.

 

[Mainad]

He just needs to get into the top 5. Then they won't bother him!" :wink:

 

[West Coast Ace]

I can see where the cynics get their motivations. By the economies of scale, the tour should easily be able to work out a 'test everyone at x number of events per year' deal with some company that does blood/p** testing.

 

[Bukmeikara]

We all know which players he is reffering

very true. If you're a big money maker for the sport Im sure they will look the other way

 

[reaper]

Maybe they find him having 4 extended breaks from the circuit in a 12 month period unusual.

 

[Bartelby]

As you can see from the headline, the ATP does not do any drug testing.

The ITF conducts the grossly underfunded drug testing regime.

 

[rossi46]

They have had their eye on him since he beat the sports premier doper.

Imagine a young, up and coming player with a sense of entitlement questioning the powers that be. Krygios already has an on-court attitude problem that will likely extend to future poor performances unless someone in his inner-circle can get him under control. Nick needs to focus less on the negative and more on the positive or his career will soon stagnate. Looks like #RyanHarrison might have a little company. #GirlBye

LOL.

Kyrgios is already far superior to Ryan Harrison, even if he doesn't step foot onto a tennis court again.

You mean Seppi right :mrgreen::mrgreen:

I doubt Federer has ever doped.

Since he "burned out".

[Aussie Darcy]

Such a whinger. Shuddddddup.

 

[King Fed WW]

The really important thing is that he wishes some others got tested.

Who is he talking about? Who does he believe is using PEDs?

Who really cares about his whining, this is 100 times more important.

Truth.

I doubt it's PEDs. Kyrgios doesn't look some a PEDs user, they're probably checking out his night lifestyle.

 

[Warmaster]

Two times in two months hardly seems excessive. Not sure what this is all about, unless he has inside information some players aren't tested at all.

Last year he was tested only 1 -3 times out-of-competition:

Maybe somebody has inside information...

 

[Mr.Lob]

Kyrgios should get one of those "safe rooms" built, like Serena has. Some ATP official come around with a pee cup, just run into your "safe room", lock the door, and don't come out for a week. :shock:

Indeed. It begs some questions....

 

[Edgecrusher]

Since Estoril one thing is clear to me ... If Kyrgios was a board member he would be on my ignore list.

 

[octobrina10]

why won't they test somebody that is obviously on roids

 

[FeroBango]

He's been consistent at this at least.
