Nick Kyrgios is once again polarizing the attention.
After winning the ATP500 in Tokyo, Nick stated that he didn’t need a coach, adding that the confirmation was the fact that he has won such a prestigious title without any technical help. Things got to the opposite direction in Shanghai where Kyrgios refused to put an adequate effort against Misha Zverev to receive an eight weeks’ ban for his horrible tanking. Eventually, his behavior confirmed that he badly needs a full-time mentor. But who?
Connors coaching Kyrgios?
Jimmy Connors drops a bomb via Twitter to direct a rather public message to Nick saying “Kyrgios— you want to be the best– come see me– you will learn to play, excite, and to win!! It’s you choice– or just be mediocre!gd luck”
Jimmy has already coached Roddick, Sharapova (that lasted one match!), and he has given some advice to Genie Bouchard (that didn’t go that well either).
Let’s see how this will develop.

It would be great to see Connors and Kyrgios working together, but I think they would kill each other after a couple of sessions
