The Indian Wells Masters have come to an end, and australian Kyrgios will undoubtedly occupy an eye-catching position when judging the dark horse players of the event.
He did not reach the quarter-finals of the Masters for a long time, and this time he competed with a wild card, defeating clay masters such as Delbonnes and Rude, and finally in the quarter-finals, when he met the clay king Nadal, he was defeated in three sets and stopped in the quarterfinals.
Having said so much about him and the clay, it was only to bring up the following topic: Kyrgios, who had originally scorned the clay, planned to play in the clay tournament!
Recently, he accepted a wild card for the Houston Race! It is reported that this year's event will be held a week after the end of the Miami Masters, and the level is a 250 race.
It will also be his second clay event since the Rome Masters three years ago. He's been absent for too long!
Looking back at that competition, he is also full of stories. In the first round he defeated Medvedev (Kyrgios's last champion so far was also the Russian, in Washington that year).
In the second round, when he played Against Ruud, who was far from famous at the time, he actually lost control in the decisive set, threw the beat like a "madman", and then the referee directly disqualified him from the game.
Of course, after the match, he and Rudd also launched a verbal battle on the Internet, opening a series of enmity and resentment.
Coincidentally, in the Houston race registration list, we also saw the name of the Norwegian Rudd, and as a top ten player in the world, he will most likely compete as the number one seed.
I wonder if the tournament will be like the Indian Wells Masters, let them reunite again? If they meet, will it be far more exciting than an encounter on the hard court?
Will Kyrgios go to clay again? The answer is no! In recent years, he has only played in the Houston Clay Race, and the schedule has been Stuttgart and Mallorca, and it is reported that he has confirmed that he has won two wild cards.
Of course, there are also fans who laugh at it: Kyrgios may not be able to condescend to play the qualifiers, because with his current ranking, if there is no wild card, he can only play the qualifiers. However, according to his traffic, the event side is also willing to send him a wild card.
Can the Australians take advantage of the Indian Wells Masters' performance to continue to play well for a while, or even change the idea of early retirement? Let's keep watching. (Source: Tennis House Author: Luo ChengQiye)
