Kyrgios withdraws from French Open
Nick Kyrgios withdrew from the French Open on Friday.
The ATP said the Australian player cited illness as the reason.
Kyrgios was defaulted at the Italian Open after a raging outburst. Trailing against Norwegian qualifier Casper Ruud in round two, he slammed his racket into the clay and kicked a water bottle. Then he picked up a chair and flung it onto the court.

Kyrgios throws chair, defaults in Rome
Nick Kyrgios threw a chair and walked off the court at the Internazionali BNL d'Italia in Rome on Thursday and was defaulted.
Kyrgios was trailing Norwegian qualifier Casper Ruud 2-1 in the third set when he walked off the court. He had been warned for ball abuse, lost a point for unsportsmanlike conduct and then was penalized with a game loss for unsportsmanlike conduct, apparently for berating spectators.

Nadal wants Kyrgios to set better example
Rafael Nadal insisted Wednesday that he has immense respect for Nick Kyrgios's talent, and his public scolding of the mercurial Aussie after their stormy Acapulco clash doesn't change that.
Kyrgios survived three match points to beat top-seeded Nadal in three sets to reach the quarter-finals in Acapulco, where he went on to win his first ATP title in more than a year.
Immediately after the match, 17-time Grand Slam champion Nadal said that Kyrgios -- who complained of illness, served underarm and taunted a pro-Nadal crowd on the way to victory -- "lacks respect for the public, the opponent and for himself."

Kyrgios beats Zverev to win Acapulco title
Nick Kyrgios saved his best performance of a brilliant week for last as the Australian stunned second seed Alexander Zverev 6-3 6-4 to win the Acapulco International in Mexico on Saturday for his fifth career ATP title.
The temperamental Aussie, whose scintillating run to the final included wins over multiple grand slam winners Stan Wawrinka and Rafa Nadal, played free and focused from the outset and frustrated German Zverev with a steady diet of drop shots.

Federer beats Kyrgios at US Open
Roger Federer handed Nick Kyrgios a 6-4 6-1 7-5 tennis masterclass by storming into the fourth round of the U.S. Open on Saturday with a ruthless display that left the Australian talking to himself and waving the white flag.
With all three of their previous meetings requiring a third-set tiebreak to decide the winner, a packed Arthur Ashe Stadium had expected high drama but instead witnessed a rout as Federer recorded his third win against the unpredictable Australian.
The match was not only an intriguing contrast in styles but also in temperament, with Federer, tennis's ultimate good guy, taking on Kyrgios, the sport's undisputed bad boy.

Umpire tells Kyrgios to try harder
Nick Kyrgios was told to try harder at the US Open on Thursday -- by a frustrated umpire who controversially climbed out of his chair to give the Australian a pep talk.
Kyrgios was a set and 0-3 down to Frenchman Pierre-Hugues Herbert on Court 17 when umpire Mohamed Lahyani lost patience with the under-performing 30th seed.
Lahyani stood over the seated Kyrgios, berating the 23-year-old.

Weary Kyrgios puts heat on officials after first round win
Nick Kyrgios sweated out a 7-5 2-6 6-4 6-2 win over Radu Albot to reach the second round of the U.S. Open on Tuesday then the fiery Australian put the heat on officials to come up with a extreme conditions rule instead of making one up on the fly.
With temperatures soaring above 32 degrees Celsius (90 Fahrenheit) amid crushing humidity, the United States Tennis Association (USTA) said a 10-minute heat break granted to women players before a third set would be extended to the men.

Nick Kyrgios forgot to bring his tennis shoes to a match
Nick Kyrgios forgot to bring his tennis shoes to his match against Denis Kudla at the Cincinnati Masters.
Kyrgios made it all the way down to the court in his basketball shoes — something he generally does before switching to his tennis shoes each match. Except when he went to his bag to pull them out, his shoes were nowhere to be found.

Nick Kyrgios Wimbledon Second round press conference
Nick Kyrgios talks to the media after his 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 win against Robin Haase
Q. How would you sum it up today?
NICK KYRGIOS: Knew it was going to be a tough match. Came out really good. The first two sets, I was pretty impressed with my performance. Obviously third set got a bit rocky. I broke him a couple times, lost my serve, lost focus.
Yeah, I mean, I knew the match was going to get tough at a certain stage. I'm just glad I got through it and didn't have to go to four sets.

Nick Kyrgios Wimbledon first round press conference
Nick Kyrgios speaks to the media after his 7-6(3), 7-6(4), 6-7(5), 6-3 win against Denis Istomin
Q. How did you assess that today?
NICK KYRGIOS: Very tough match. I didn't play anywhere near my best tennis today. I served well. But, you know, I struggled to find rhythm. That's what he does so well on the grass court. He served really well today.
I thought he played really, really well. I played him one time on grass a couple years ago, Davis Cup. Today was much tougher than I remembered. As I said, I wasn't playing well from the back. I struggled to find rhythm. A couple, like, nerves. I was a bit nervous going out there today.
