Nick Kyrgios took to social media to clap back at a neighbor who posted photos of his parking method after the photos went viral.
The Australian tennis player might be one of the best on the ATP Tour, but he also has day-to-day problems, which he recently experienced in a clash with his neighbor.
The situation arose after the neighbor posted photos of Kyrgios' car, quite easily noticeable green Tesla Model X, parked the wrong way on Facebook, asking people for advice.
"Looking for some advice here, it’s a tricky one, we have a car share allocated spot right out the front of our apartment building. Recently a very well known famous and quite notorious tennis player has decided that he is somehow entitled to park in it with his own vehicle."
"I don’t want to name and shame the guy but he’s very famous and parks in this car share space almost nightly, meaning that anybody that has a Go Get or Car Next Door vehicle has no option to park there, as you can see the other night our friends had to park their Car Next Door vehicle illegally behind him as he had parked his car in the dedicated car share space?"
"Should I just let this guy go because he’s an elite athlete? Not that a $400 fine's going to impact his bank account by any means, but it’s more based on principle and setting a good example."
"Especially when car share is all about minimising pollution, traffic and congestion. No doubt I’ll get a few trolls on here but I just thought it a reasonable question to put forward on this group."
Kyrgios was made aware of the post as it went viral, and he took to Instagram to issue an apology while sliding in a bit of dig at the neighbor as well.
"Hi there, I’ve parked in the right spot. I’ve made amends. Sorry for my inconvenient parking for one day."
His response only added more fuel to the fire as many people started discussing the topic online. Obviously, several people sided with the neighbor as Kyrgios was in the wrong and the Australian could not resist chiming in once more.
"Haha nothing to talk about it Australia other than where Nick Kyrgios parks. Y’all are funny."
