Wimbledon 2019: Nick Kyrgios sets tone for big-ticket clash with Rafael Nadal, says they have mutual respect... but 'that's about it'

Firstpost  

Nick Kyrgios set the tone Tuesday for a Wimbledon blockbuster with bitter rival Rafael Nadal by stating: “We have mutual respect – but that’s about it.” London: Nick Kyrgios set the tone Tuesday for a Wimbledon blockbuster with bitter rival Rafael Nadal by stating: “We have mutual respect — but that’s about it.” Kyrgios opened his Wimbledon campaign with a 7-6, 3-6, 7-6, 0-6, 6-1 win over fellow Australian Jordan Thompson. “We have a mutual respect — but that’s about it, I think.” Nadal and Kyrgios have been involved in a bitter war of words this year since the Australian defeated the 18-time major champion in a stormy clash in Acapulco. Kyrgios then became involved in a slanging match with Toni Nadal, the world number two’s uncle and former coach, who lambasted the Australian for his on-court behaviour. I’m going to grasp with both hands, go out there, give it my best shot.” Kyrgios, who famously stunned Nadal as a 144-ranked wildcard on his Wimbledon tournament debut in 2014, put in a typically raucous and charismatic display on Court Three on Tuesday.
