Nick Kyrgios keeps on slamming Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev and Dominic Thiem to start yet another spat over Twitter.
Thiem has been criticized for long by Kyrgios on different levels and the Austrian didn’t like Nick’s recent attacks about Dominic’s participation in the Adria Tour and other exhibitions.
During a recent interview, the world no.3 commented:
“It was his mistake, but I don’t understand why a lot of people want to interfere. Kyrgios did a lot of mistakes himself. It would be better for him to come clean instead of criticising others.”
Well-known NY Times freelancer Ben Rothenberg didn’t like the statement to say:
“Not sure what Thiem thinks that Kyrgios has to “come clean” about. He’s as open a book as there is on tour, for better and worse.”
Then it was time for Kyrgios to kick in tweeting the following messages.
“What are you talking about @ThiemDomi? Mistakes like smashing rackets? Swearing? Tanking a few matches here or there? Which everyone does? None of you have the intellectual level to even understand where I’m coming from. I’m trying to hold them accountable.
This just shows what a joke @ThiemDomi, @AlexZverev & @DjokerNole think this is, 2 of them partying like potato’s during a global pandemic. People losing lives, loved ones and friends, and then Thiem standing up for the ‘mistake’ these guys are the ‘top’ of our sport. SMH.”
