Nick Kyrgios shades Pablo Carreno Busta after being called out on social media

Nick Kyrgios found himself in unwanted drama when he was called out on some comments he made about Pablo Carreno Busta a few years ago.

Nick Kyrgios always spoke his mind which is unusual for tennis players because most try to be rather complimentary to each other. The Australian openly criticised several players such as Casper Ruud calling his game boring and while he doesn't do that anymore he did feel compelled to respond after being called out on social media.

The 'We Are Tennis" Twitter page called out Kyrgios in relation to some comments he made in 2020. The comment in question was made on Twitter where Kyrgios shaded Pablo Carreno Busta as a clay specialist. The Aussie doesn't like the surface it's not secret and he openly avoids it with him writing:

"If clay didn't exist, dude wouldn't of even been close to the top 50."

We Are Tennis reminded him of that with a screenshot of the comment captioning it with some stats. They basically pointed out that Kyrgios has zero grand slam semi-finals on hard courts while Carreno Busta has two and the Spaniard now has a Masters as well. They finished off the post with 'Karma' and Kyrgios responded:

"Nah I’m good, our head to head is a laugh"

In case you're wondering why it's a laugh, well Kyrgios leads him 3-0 with every match being rather comfortable for Nick.
