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.

Kyrgios ready to get serious
With his often nonchalant approach and penchant for trick shots, Nick Kyrgios often gives the impression that grafting away throughout a two-week grand slam is not really his cup of tea.
While his talent has never been disputed since he stunned Rafael Nadal with an audacious fourth-round display at Wimbledon in 2014, his volatile temperament has too often been his undoing, regularly landing him in hot water.
The past two weeks, however, have seen his tennis making the headlines. He almost beat eight-times Wimbledon champion Roger Federer at the Stuttgart grasscourt tournament and a week later he served almost 100 aces en route to the Queen's Club semis.

Kyrgios fined for inappropriate behavior at Queen's Club
The ATP tour has fined Nick Kyrgios 15,000 euros ($17,500) for inappropriate behavior during the Queen's Club tournament.
Kyrgios was caught on camera performing an imitation of a lewd act as he sat in a courtside chair at the change of ends during his semifinal loss to Marin Cilic on Saturday.
During an earlier win at the same tournament over Kyle Edmund, British broadcaster BBC apologized to viewers after a string of expletives by Kyrgios were audible on air.
The 23-year-old Kyrgios has won four titles on the ATP Tour and is widely considered to be a talented and temperamental player, but has a history of sanctions for his behavior on and off the court.
