Nick Kyrgios had a solid start of his campaign in Melbourne to defeat Pablo Carreno Busta 6-2 7-5 6-2 in just 91 minutes. The only tricky moment for Nick was when he dropped his serve at the very beginning of the 2nd set, but besides that, everything was fine.

Kyrgios. I was striking the ball pretty well
Nick was elated with his match to comment “I knew it was going to be a tough match. There were a lot of nerves, a lot of excitement. I haven’t played a real, real match. I played Hopman Cup. Felt confident. Just going out there with the pressure, playing in front of the home crowd. I came out there pretty good. I was striking the ball well from the get-go. That probably eased me into the match a little bit better than I thought it was going to be out there. It was a good win.”
Next vs. Cuevas
Nick will play Cuevas in the 2nd round. This is the first time they play each other.
