Nick Kyrgios reacts to Rafael Nadal and the US Open
In a recent Wide World of Sports interview, Nick gave his reactions to Rafa’s decision. He says he was not surprised and rather Rafa will look to the French Open instead. Kyrgios has admitted that he would prefer to go to Europe than to the United States right now.
“I wasn’t necessarily surprised by Rafa’s decision, I think he is looking more at the French Open. If I had to play, I would probably prefer to go to Europe at this time of year with everything going on. “ Kyrgios said
He also took a slight escape to the US Open. Kysgios was confident that like him many other players did not want to risk their health. He says the United States will not be happy to see players “don’t risk their health”.
“I don’t know if I necessarily felt better. But of course, I wasn’t too surprised once I was the first hurdle to fall, leaving the US Open I knew many players would. I don’t think the US Open will be happy to see some of the biggest names in the sport not endanger their health, go there and play. “ Kyrgios said
