Khachanov defends Kyrgios: “He is a good person”

Talk about Nick Kyrgios is to speak of controversy. The Australian's personality and actions means that he is always in the limelight. There are many who criticize him and few who defend him, but these seconds do so ironically. One of them is Karen Khachanov. The Russian, current world number 15 of 24, gave an interview on Tennisnet and praised Nick again.

He is a good person in my opinion. We were circuit partners when we were younger. We are from the same generation and we know each other well. To some it may seem crazy on the court, but outside it is very calm. Sometimes there may be some problems with him, maybe he has to deal with a lot of internal pressure… Anyway, he is responsible for his actions, but I will not judge whether they are good or bad, ”Khachanov said.
