Nick Kyrgios has become one of the most coveted tennis players on the ATP circuit. His talent on the court and the eccentricities that he usually performs during games is a claim for tournaments when it comes to attracting fans who either love or hate the controversial Australian tennis player.
One of the last to show interest in having Kyrgios in his tournament is Patrick Mouratoglou, the coach of Serena Williams, who during the circuit break has launched the Ultimate Tennis Showdown, a tournament with a new format that divides the matches into four 10-minute quarters in which the players must score the highest number of points.
In an interview with UbiTennis Mouratoglou, he hopes that the format will please Kyrgios and believes that his presence in the tournament would be ideal. “Kyrgios would be the perfect tennis player in my tournament, I like that idea. Nick is one of the two tennis players outside the Big Three that fill the courts. He is a joker and his personality is another reason why we would like to have him. “
The possibility of interacting with the public during breaks could be another of the measures that could attract Kyrgios. “He is an important part of his personality and that is why people love or hate him. Everything he does is exaggerated. He is very provocative and he likes to do that. He is the way he is and he is a very interesting character. But it is also the reason why others don't like it, “Mouratoglou said.
