Did you know that Nick Kyrgios has never been ranked higher than #13 in the world

It’s strange that being one of the top 20 best tennis players in the world is ridiculously impressive and yet he feels so disappointing

It’s the obvious physical upside combined with the way he loses, which is usually by way of some sort of mental lapse that analysts all decided he could just stop doing if he wanted. But I don’t think he could! I don’t think there’s a switch to just easily flip.

Yeah, there might have been a time when that was possible but you can only play around so much until it’s just who you are.

Yep. For most of his career he was ranked around 25 - 40
