| by Sebastian Dahlman

Nick Kyrgios came back to win in three sets against Kamil Majchrzak after starting slow and dropping the first set.

Kyrgios dropped his first service game, which handed his opponent the upper hand necessary to win the opening set. Despite being clearly upset with the outcome, Kyrgios never had any doubts about his ability to win the match, and his brilliant comeback and victory served as proof.

"Losing the first set, there was never really a doubt in my mind that I was going to win the match," said Kyrgios after nothing his 37th win of the season "I just had to get back to doing what I do well — that's playing quick and aggressive tennis."

Kyrgios continues to rack up wins in what is certainly the best year in his career and it's all due to working hard for over a year on his game and being confident: "I've got really good confidence in my game right now, so I don't really doubt myself even when I'm down a set. I think playing Grand Slams and going far in Grand Slams has given me that confidence that even if I lose a set I'm still able to maintain and increase my level in the match."

In order to advance to the semi-final, Kyrgios must defeat Taylor Fritz. The two have already met this year as Kyrgios won with ease when they played in Cincinnati. Ahead of the match, Kyrgios said:

"Fritz is obviously an incredible player. He's had a great year. He plays very aggressive, has a great serve and is very dangerous off both wings."
