I totally agree with both of you, the sad part is we all can see the potential he has to be a top player but he just isn't mentally right. I'm worried that it could be too late once he gets his mind straight and focused on tennis as there are other young guys coming through the ranks which look good. Kyrgios still has time on he's side to get himself sorted out before its too late, it must be within the next year though or he's chance could be gone like Tomic.
I read some articles saying that Nick's favorite sports is actually not Tennis but Basketball. And I have this hunch that is the reason why he didn't f***ing care whether winning or losing in the court. He didn't have that passion, and it looks like he is was going to the motions and just playing for the sake of making money that's why he disregarded everything related to tennis, the umpire, the audience and specially his opponent on the opposite side of the court. I'm glad you mentioned Tomic, they have this similar "bad boy" image and now it seems that Tomic can't recover from that stigma and seems to be on the downward spiral as opposed to be playing his best tennis at his peak age of 25 or 26.
“All I do is count my millions – you try doing what I do!” - LOL, he totally snapped once he was question by the media.
