We all knew that a match between Nick Kyrgios and Dustin Brown at Wimbledon would have been great, and they didn’t fall short of our expectations. Kyrgios won an entertaining five-setter 6-7 (3) 6-1 2-6 6-4 6-4. The match was so fast that it went to the 5th set after only 1 hour and 50 minutes.
During the encounter, Nick had a heated talk with the umpire; in the press conference following the match, the Brown defended Kyrgios “I’m pretty sure everyone that knows Nick, knows Nick is a great tennis player,” he commented. “If certain things happen and there are a few bad calls, I mean, all of us have gotten upset on the court already for bad calls, especially in certain moments.
