The Australian Wimbledon finalist went unbroken in his 7-6 (7-4) 6-3 semi-final win, stretching his streak of five semi-final appearances from his past six events
Nick Kyrgios is “super excited” after continuing his career-best season by powering into the final of the Citi Open in Washington.
The second set also proved a serving duel but the Swede was always going to come out second best against Kyrgios in this type of mood as the Australian reeled off the last three games to prevail in one hour, 34 minutes. “The difference was he stands on the fast and he makes you play that extra ball. He’s an incredible athlete and I really wasn’t expecting him to be that fast,” Kyrgios said of his rival. “Maybe next time I might have a couple different tactics when I play him, maybe not to try and out rally him, maybe come forward a little bit more. But it was a tough-fought semi-final. I’m just happy to be in another final.
