Nick Kyrgios and Novak Djokovic do not enjoy a fantastic relationship with the Australian often blasting at the world no.1. Apparently, Kyrgios didn’t like Novak’s reaction to his antics at the beginning of the career of the Australian. That left the mark.
Nick already criticized Novak for hosting the disgraced Adria Tour after players and team members were found positive as the event enforced no social distancing.
“Boneheaded decision to go ahead with the ‘exhibition’ speedy recovery fellas, but that’s what happens when you disregard all protocols. This IS NOT A JOKE,” said Nick in a tweet.

Then, Nick blasted Novak’s coach Ivanisevic in another tweet.
Congratulations. Such leadership 🤦🏽♂️ https://t.co/rHWpMC7tqD

Finally the Australian couldn’t refrain from taking another dig at Novak and Goran after Ivanisevic was also found infected saying: “Game leadership, leadership leads by 2 games to love.”
