Nick Kyrgios has done it again!<\/strong>\u00a0The Australian champion has released new incredible words, this time aimed at\u00a0Novak Djokovic<\/strong>,\u00a0Roger Federer<\/strong>,\u00a0Rafael Nadal\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0Andy Murray<\/strong>, saying that his tennis IQ is superior to that of the Fab 4.<\/p>\n

The Australian tennis player will return to the court in 2025 at the ATP 250 tournament in Brisbane, scheduled from December 29 to January 5, 2025. After knee problems and surgery on his right wrist that forced him to stay out of action for the last two years, Nick is becoming more famous for his – often inappropriate – comments on social media towards his colleagues, than for his exploits on the court.<\/p>\n

The former Wimbledon finalist, this time through social media, had fun building his perfect tennis player, then praising himself for his tennis intelligence, which in his opinion is superior to the aforementioned phenomena.<\/p>\n

“I have a higher quotient than Djokovic, Federer, Nadal and even Murray. I don’t remember other tennis players capable of reaching the Wimbledon final without a coach,” he said.<\/p>\n

Kyrgios then listed the shots that would appeal to any tennis player. He couldn’t miss out on quoting himself.<\/p>\n

“As for the serve, I choose Kyrgios: even if I’m not too tall, I think I have the best serve. As for the backhand, no doubt: Djokovic, no one plays it better than him. Then I choose Federer’s slice, De Minaur for his speed on the court and Nadal’s physique,” he added.<\/p>\n

For once, the 29-year-old stood out for a rather off-color statement, which this time does not feature Jannik Sinner, Iga Swiatek or Andy Roddick, against whom (especially the Italian) he has held a real crusade in recent months. Now it’s the turn of the Fab 4. We’ll see when it’s time for the comeback on the court what the other tennis players have in store for the Australian. Obviously, a player like Nick is fundamental for tennis, all around, both on the court and off the court.<\/p>\n
