Nick Kyrgios is one of the most talented players on tour and he can definitely win a slam according to Novak Djokovic’s coach Goran Ivanisevic.
Goran was interviewed on the Australian Open YouTube channel by Todd Woodbridge, When he was asked about an assessment about Nick he replied:
“He has some issues deep down. He is the worst for himself and I know how he feels. He is fighting with 100 people, sometimes he wants to prove something that is impossible to prove.
But there is no sense to talk about his talent because he is one of the biggest talents. He is the guy who can win Grand Slams. He can beat anybody any day. He is, for me, the best server in the game. He can do whatever with the ball.
He is getting better and better and he will honestly regret one day if he’s kind of not be able to change.”
Nick is currently back to training in his Canberra, where he needs to rebuild his fitness, hoping that competitions will comeback any soon. The official tour has been halted until the 13th of July (at least) and there are hopes that the competitions will be back by August.
