Russian Daniil Medvedev commented on the defiant behavior of the Australian Nick Kyrgios.
“Kyrgios behaves defiantly, but a little differently. Djokovic behaved defiantly towards victory. And Kyrgios is just defiant. Many are friends with him, I – no, we just never talked closely. In life he is a normal guy, but on the court he has a strange behavior. I am not a psychologist, not in his head, and certainly not his friend, to say what is in his head. Although something broke him. Not psyche. Either he doesn’t always want to play tennis, or, on the contrary, he expects so easy victory from himself that when he doesn’t get easy, he starts acting like that.
He can behave provocatively, like a young Djokovic, but precisely in relation to the victory over his rival. And when he plays against the weak and he doesn’t get something, then he starts to show off, feed from his hand, say that his knee hurts. Because he does not want to show that it is difficult for him to play with this rival, “- Medvedev says Eurosport.
