TENNIS : TANTRUM BOY NICK KYRGIOS FINED IN SHANGHAI FOR, WELL, ANOTHER TANTRUM !
Tennis Tantrum Boy Nick Kyrgios is at it, again.Tweet
He's been slapped with a fine in Shanghai - - for second year in a row now - - for walking off mid-match.
The 22-year-old Australian has been fined USD $10,000 and has lost his minimum guaranteed prize money of about USD 21,000 for unsportsmanlike conduct after storming out of court at end of First Set in the first Round at the Shanghai Masters.
Nick Kyrgios was apparently outraged by the umpire not able to rein in the crowd during a tie-break in which he lost, hence his usual tantrum.
After losing just the First Set, Kyrgios left the court.
Well, to paraphrase a local pundit, Nick Kyrgios - - now World No. 21 and Australia's No.1 - - is easily Australia's national inspiration in some good days, and a national embarrassment in all the rest.
