Kyrgios Sabalenka

In December, Nick Kyrgios will return to the heart of the news. First, the Australian will be one of the headliners of the World Tennis League, a mixed exhibition organized in India, before flying to Dubai at the end of December to compete in the famous 'Battle of the Sexes' 2025 edition.

"The guys told me: 'You will be our representative'"

Thus, the 2022 Wimbledon finalist is resuming media appearances, as in this brief interview given to the Australian Associated Press (AAP) and relayed by TennisHead, where he discusses his upcoming duel against Sabalenka:

"I was in Hong Kong recently (for a UTS event). Many guys told me: 'You will be our representative'. I find myself on the front line again.

I'm not the type to shy away from media pressure. I'm enthusiastic, no matter what. I will step onto the court and show the world that, as strong as she is, she also has her weaknesses."
