Boris Becker and Nick Kyrgios are a little cross over at the moment

When Boris Becker was interviewed last year by Nick Kyrgios in Cincinnati during a small round of journalists on the Eurosport stage, the three-time Wimbledon champion just said: There was too much talk about the Australian. He should first reach a semi-final or more in a Grand Slam tournament, then you can deal with him again.

Kyrgios probably missed the biggest chance of this with the cancellation of the Wimbledon 2020 tournament. After all, the grass suits the way the man from Canberra plays the most. Like that of Becker.

But because it's time, Kyrgios observes the goings-on of his European colleagues and doesn't hesitate to criticize social media. Finally it happened again Alexander Zverev, who created his self-quarantine announced after the departure from Zadar much shorter than planned and spent a few hours with a select group of certainly closest friends who classified quite a few observers as a lavish party.

Becker defends Zverev against Kyrgios

Kyrgios did not appreciate this, which is what has now brought Becker to the scene.

The German tennis legend sent Kyrgios to the address of Kyrgios, who did not like rats.

At the end of the short but fierce discussion, the circle of Becker's announcement in late summer 2019 in New York City closed, so to speak: Kyrgios should finally be a man and do something at the big tournaments. What did not further challenge the addressed: On the contrary, the Zverev defended by Becker should be a man and explain his behavior.
