Nick Kyrgios and Novak Djokovic enjoyed a very funny conversation on social media as the two continue to grow their friendship.

Kyrgios and Djokovic used to be players that you wouldn't voluntarily put in one room for five minutes, but things changed a lot this year. It all started when the 27-year-old Australian showed his support for Djokovic when he was being deported from Australia ahead of the first Grand Slam of the season.

Kyrgios was one of the few players who were not afraid to speak out and stand behind Djokovic, who appreciated the support. Moreover, the Australian player recently showed that he wanted to see his final opponent from this year's Wimbledon in Australia again.

"I hope he is here, for the sport. We just saw one of the legends leave the sport, Roger, and that’s going to be some shoes that no one is ever going to be able to fill."

During the Wimbledon Championships, Kyrgios also spoke about a "weird bromance" between them right now. That seems to be taking place also a few months after the third Grand Slam of the season.

After Kyrgios shared a video from practice courts, Djokovic soon replied with a joking response, asking whether the Australian prepared for the serve like he used to.

"Is that my serve preparation?"

Djokovic is known as a player who usually takes his time before serving. In the past, the Serbian player used to bounce the ball a ridiculous amount of times before he served, which is why Kyrgios had a good laugh and produced a funny response, too.

"Haha. That's so funny. Yours is WORSE. MATE YOU TAKE 47283728 hours to serve."

Djokovic, of course, is aware that it takes him some time to prepare for his serve. That's why he joked that he should learn from Kyrgios, who is on the exact opposite side of the spectrum when it comes to how fast he prepares to serve.

"Haha true. Sometimes, not always. Need to work on your super sonic speed routine."

Kyrgios shared this conversation on his Instagram story, saying that he never expected to have such conversations with Djokovic.

"Honestly, I never thought I'd be having convos like this."
