“So these are all things I have in the back of my mind.” “I've played a lot of tennis in the last month and a half.

Nick Kyrgios and Stefanos Tsitsipas have both been fined following their fiery third-round match at Wimbledon on Saturday.

"I did nothing towards Stefanos today that was disrespectful," he added. The 27-year-old has reached the quarterfinals of a grand slam on two previous occasions -- a record he could equal by beating Nakashima when the pair meet on Centre Court. After the match, he apologized for hitting a ball into the stands, which is deemed a separate offense in the grand slam rulebook.

Nick Kyrgios continued his eventful run at Wimbledon with a 4-6 6-4 7-6 (7-2) 3-6 6-2 victory against Brandon Nakashima in the fourth round.

The 20-year-old Nakashima, however, was far from done and broke for a 4-3 lead in the fourth. American Nakashima, playing in his first fourth-round match at a grand slam, claimed the first set with the first break point of the match, but Kyrgios, despite clutching his shoulder a number of times, hit back with a break at the start of the second. "I've never lost a five-set match here -- that's what I was thinking about," he said.

For better or worse, no personality has burned brighter at this year's Wimbledon than Nick Kyrgios. That included his tactics in the fourth round on Monday.

Moffett said his client is aware of the charge. CNN has reached out to Wimbledon for comment on whether these allegations will affect his participation in the tournament. , who first reported the news, that he had been briefed on the matter, which was "in the context of a domestic relationship."

Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios is set to appear in court next month on charges that he allegedly assaulted a former girlfriend in December 2021.

"It's in the context of a domestic relationship," Jason Moffett told The Canberra Times of the case. In 2019, he was placed on a six-month probation by the ATP Tour after being fined $113,000 for eight infractions at a tournament. Then, in his heavily anticipated Third Round match against Stefanos Tsitsipas, he got out of order with the chair umpire and demanded that his opponent be defaulted.

He is absolutely crushing it (and maybe headed to prison afterward)

The ATP was only too happy to do nothing and using that as cover, to the fury of more than a few players, but they’ll also feel Kyrgios is a much easier target whatever the outcome of the trial. The constant jabbering only infuriated Tsitsipas more, and he spent more than one game more concerned with labeling Kyrgios’s forehead with a ball than trying to win. Combined with Kyrgios talking to himself even during Tsitsipas’s serve and his blistering pace of play, and he certainly had the Greek on edge before the underhand serves. He can tickle the opposite side of the net with most delicate drop shot from anywhere on the court, and treat it like nothing as he gives up the next point with criminal nonchalance. Of course, with Kyrgios everything has its own context, and when he does it it’s seen as him not taking the match or sport seriously. And his run to the quarters (so far) at Wimbledon has been perhaps the most shining example of that in his career.
