This board is an example of the world as far as talking about this tool. He has done nothing to deserve this. He is more famous for his personality than playing tennis. No athlete in history has been talked about as much as this clown show and done as little in their sport. No one. Ever. Quit comparing him to actual tennis players who accomplished things. I dont care about his alleged talent. There is someone in a basement somewhere who might have that talent but never used it. Its not relevant.

The reason I made the thread is because in the Netflix show, Roddick himself says about Kyrgios, "I wish I had his talent."

Kyrgios profile in the sport cannot be denied. Particularly after he got to a Wimbledon final.

Roddick had a better serve and a MUCH, much, much better forehand. He was also a grand slam champion.

Actually Anna Kournikova was talked about a lot more than Nick and became a lot more famous. Nick got to a slam final and has won 7 titles. Anna never won a single title and best slam showing was a QF at the AO, so she did much less for tennis than Nick. Sorry, the claim is demonstrably false. ;)

Never say that Anna did much less for tennis than Nick. She is the reason I play tennis.

But to be honest Kyrgios is the poster child for a successful image/social campaign. He made the most of a limited game by being disrespectful, misbehaving, pulling trick shots and pretending he doesn't care and managed to garner more attention than more consistent or accomplished players.
Sounds like some politicians we know.
 
I agree. He’s lucky he’s Australian and gets all the perks of his country hosting a slam. Paire, Draper and Young were other similar beneficiaries.

I voiced it here before but I found it hilarious how half of the threads on the first page were discussing Kyrgios, who at the time was ranked 97th in the world. Show me another world number 97 with this many threads lol.
 
Good points. Good pics. Semifinals of Wimbledon Ladies’ Singles in 1997 if i recall correctly. Good dubs player, too.

At least Anna was good to look at. ;)
 
I think it has a huge potential which unfortunately he didn't use. Roger Federer was reported at a young age that he had a huge talent that he only exploited after the death of his beloved coach. Roger saw a purpose behind it and started to work properly for the first time after this bad event was to be read in his biography (we know what came afterwards)

The whole thing is stupid. The dude literally has one more career title than Mardy Fish.
