Already an underam serve and between the legs shot

The latter was pretty low risk though. Not on his own serve, and he had already broken once. And he's barely looked troubled on his own serve.

What a get that was! And now 0-40.

Bugger!

Who was he swearing at that game

Maybe himself. Maybe the crowd as someone called out mid-rally.

I can sense the fireworks about to begin

Kyrgios basically doing a real life happy Gilmore with Wimbledon

Not quite as likeable as Sandler...

I'll need subtitles for the last two posts. But it looks like uberbrat is beginning to revert to type.

For a reference to a 26 year old movie?

very soft break that unfortunately that from Kyrgios to lose that 3rd set .

Its been a fun match so far, but not sure Nick comes back from this.

 

[StephenZA]

That is pretty much match... Kyrigos has not got the temperament to overcome Djockivic at this stage.

Fraid so.

Too recent for me, you see.

 

[mr_mister]

Vicious serve

 

[mr_mister]

Second comes right after first!

 

[StephenZA]

Well done Novak.

 

[wpdavid]

They were both on good form during the post-match interviews.

The gnashing of teeth over Kyrgios wearing a red cap after the match is hilarious. He carries on like a pork chop during the match and, rightly, cops it. But the hand-wringing over the hat is entertaining, particularly from Australians.

Who was he swearing at that game

It was a woman wearing a polka dotted dress. First, every one thought it was Kate Middleton. Later, it was clarified that it was some other woman. She had had just two drinks and not the 700 which Kyrgios accused her of. She was trying to cheer for Kyrgios.

Was she talking to him between serves/points as he suggested, or was she just cheering?

I was in bed by the time this all happened.
