Nick Kyrgios will play his first Grand Slam final at the 2022 Wimbledon after beating Cristian Garin and withdrawal of his semifinal opponent, Rafael Nadal.
The 27-years-old Australian is certainly showing his positive side during the 2022 season as he managed to win already one doubles Grand Slam title at the Australian Open and is now only one match away from his first singles Grand Slam title at the Wimbledon. John McEnroe believes that this is the biggest chance the Aussie has in his career to prove his qualities and show his real talent as he recently revealed.
"With all due respect to Garin, this was an incredible draw for [Nick] Kyrgios. He’s never been in a Grand Slam semi-final and he’s not playing Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic here. This is Christian Garin, who wasn’t playing with much confidence coming into this tournament."
“He’s a very smart young man. He’s liked in the dressing room. He is the most talented player, I believe, in the last ten years in the men’s game. He just hasn’t been able to put it together mentally for a variety of reasons. He’s not been able to do that consistently. He’s out having a beer, he doesn’t want to train and that will affect your results in tournaments."
“We have been begging him to get it right because this guy moves the needle big time. He’s so good for the game. He’s got five or six different ways to blow off steam. I know about that as I’ve been through it myself. The bottom line is, that when he competes he is an incredible talent.”
