From Kyrgios
After the match, Nick commented
“It was a lot of fun. I always look forward to the ITPL and the new faces on the team have been key. You make new friends; you have this team spirit that the IPTL offers, and we have had such a good chemistry – the win shows it.
I love team sports. I love watching and also playing. Everyone supported me this week, and that makes it more fun, more enjoyable.”
