Nick was as good at 19 as he ever was. His game never progressed and his maturity never increased. Such a underachieving. Paire also should have made more noise in his career. Both have extreme talant.
@jonas89937 ай бұрын
idk about that. Kyrgios didn't commit to his career and progression as much as most pros that's for sure, but 2022 was one of his best year, and he himself said in a podcast it was his best year. Maybe at 19 he was more fit and better cardio but some shots improved imo not even mentioning his experience. As for maturity, I think people are misunderstanding the character. Kyrgios is just far from your traditional pro. Sometimes it's maturity that pushes you to take time off the tour because you aren't doing well. I think he's a dude that had and still has many obstacles to tackle, whether it's bad habits, addictions, mental issues. He's the type of guy that doesn't play by the rules, that won't ever fit the criteria that fans ask for (if that's even possible) and we should just hope for the best, appreciate when he's playing and rethink our expectations. As for Paire, I think he shares some traits with Kyrgios, but I can't say he's had an amazing year recently... Also I don't think Paire is as smart tennis wise as Kyrgios, when you see him still playing with a dysfunctional forehand, serving worse than he used too, barely playing his matches like, why do you even step on court.

Mais c est juste une realite froide , pour etre Federer, Borg, Connors, Mcenroe, Sampras, Nadal etc .... il faut un mental surhumain.
