Nick Kyrgios is playing very well so far at the 2022 Wimbledon and after his draw opened up following some withdrawals and surprises, he's one of the biggest favourites to win the tournament.
In the next round of the 2022 Wimbledon, Nick Kyrgios will play against the fourth-seeded Stefanos Tsitsipas, who he defeated a few weeks ago in Halle. If he beats the Greek, he won't face any player from Top 25 of the ATP Rankings until possible semifinal clash with Rafael Nadal. Patrick Mouratoglou, who currently coaches Simona Halep, knows what the Australian is capable of as he described all the strengths that the 2022 Australian Open doubles champion possesses.
"As you know, Nick Kyrgios brings passion and personality to the tennis world. His exciting game style is always a danger for his opponents and especially on the Wimbledon grass. He has a great variety on his serve. Nick has one of the biggest serves on tour but he also hits a slow underarm serve."
"Love it or hate it, it can be super effective against his opponents. It forces them to start far back but they never know which serve is coming their way. His tennis is very unpredictable, like his serve. Nick has so much variety in his game and it's hard to predict what's coming next. He has a great touch and is able to hit drop shots from all positions on both sides."
"He disguises his shots, making it difficult for his opponents to read. He is fearless. Nick has beaten the Big 3, including having a 2-0 record against Novak Djokovic. Showing that he's not afraid stepping up against the best players in the world. When Kyrgios is playing his best, there aren't many players that can beat him, especially on grass. The question is, can he maintain that level and mindset over 5 sets, 7 times in a row?"
