    It's about money though isn't it? Women at Wimbledon pull in the same ticket revenue as the men, so they should get the same share, no?

    Kyrgios’ serve has been class though. Must be close to 30 aces.

    He’s extremely talented but he’s gone on record to say he doesn’t particularly enjoy tennis or take it seriously. He’s the Ben Arfa of tennis.

    Barely trains and has never had a coach. Simply remarkable he's done as well as he has.

    He’s quite candid about it though. He admits the reason why he’s not achieved what Novak, Rafa of Federer have because he doesn’t want it enough. Could argue it’s been a waste of his talent really because he could’ve easily been a multiple Grand Slam champion with the right attitude.

    Possibly but I sometimes wonder if what makes him so mecurial is the fact he's a free spirit so to speak. If he was coached and focussed would it take away the dynamism he displays on court. It's something that'll never be answered but I'm not so sure it's as simple as Kyrgios + training/coaching = success.

    I reckon he's got issues way outside of tennis, he needs help imho.
