As Nick Kyrgios continued his blazing run through the Wimbledon draw by reaching the quarter-finals for the first time since his breakout tournament in 2014, he said he arrived here with the title as his goal. And he is doing everything he can to realise it.
“I was telling people back home that I wanted to go for the title this year round,” the Australian said. “I’m not thinking about lifting a trophy or making semi-finals or making the final. I’m just thinking about my habits every day, just trying to put in a good performance on the court, then put in a good practice session, try to stay positive.”
