Tsitsipas: "Kyrgios is a bully". And the Australian: "he has serious problems, nobody likes him"

Words of fire after a tense match. The Greek attacks: “He has a very evil personality trait.” The reply: “It was he who threw the balls at me and hit a spectator. He did the circus.”

After what happened on the pitch – attempts by the Greek to hit the Australian with the ball, warning, penalty point, serves from below – the tension flared up in the conference. The Greek number 5 in the world accused the Australian of “bullying”. “Kyrgios bullies opponents. He was probably a bully even when he went to school. He has a very evil personality trait. It’s complicated to play against him, you’re in a circus and in the end you are exhausted. This is not good, it has to stop.”
