Re: Kyrgios

That’s an odd perspective.
Yet, in the context of all the players who commit to tennis 24x7 and battle their guts out each year for mediocre results, PaulP's perspective is quite relevant in a limited scope.
From a morality / social justice perspective, it might also have some currency.
But then, if Djoker won that is probably a spit in the face of social justice as well! I'm sure he'll use a win to justify his political position on vaccines and unrestrained freedoms for the separatist elite.
If Tomic cruised into a Grand Slam got some lucky breaks and made the final is he also deserving of success?
btw., I quite like watching Tennis with Kyrgios, but I admit I'm not a big tennis fan. However, I watched a bit of the girls final last night and the absence of grunting was heart warming, I could actually watch it! I also watched tennis when the likes of McEnroe, Connors or Lendl were piling on the animosity towards officials and opponents. I liked the theatre, and I side with Kyrgios when you hear them criticising Kyrgios' behaviour.
