Nick Kyrgios addressed allegations of common assault on a former girlfriend after reaching the Wimbledon semi-finals. 9WWOS
Ahead of his quarter-final match against Garin, ACT police confirmed the 27-year-old Australian was to appear in a Canberra court next month after a complaint was made by Kyrgios' former partner Chiara Passari.
Kyrgios said it was difficult to read the reports about the alleged claims in the lead up to his clash with Garin, but it did not impact him mentally. Nadal, who won Wimbledon in 2008 and 2010, leads Kyrgios 6-3 head-to-head; they are 1-all at Wimbledon. In 2014, Kyrgios, then just 19 and ranked 144th, announced himself to the world by winning; in 2019, Nadal took the rematch after Kyrgios spent the night before at a local pub into the wee hours.“I feel like that would be a mouth-watering kind of encounter for everyone around the world,” Kyrgios, never afraid of a little hyperbole, said about facing Nadal again.
Kyrgios, who is ranked 40th, has garnered more attention for his behavior on and off the court than his skills with a racket in hand. His match against the unseeded Garin, a 26-year-old from Chile, came a day after police in Canberra, Australia, said that Kyrgios is due in court next month to face an allegation of common assault stemming from something that happened in December.
