Nick Kyrgios complains fan is smoking marijuana and explodes at his box in US Open win

Nick Kyrgios was once again seen complaining to the umpire but this time about something nobody expected. 

During his four set victory over France’s Benjamin Bonzi on Louis Armstrong Stadium at the US Open, the Australian, 27, claimed he could smell the smoke of marijuana coming from the crowd. “It was f***ing marijuana,” he was heard saying. “It was smoke. Obviously I'm not going to complain about food. When athletes are running side to side and they have asthma, it's probably not ideal.” 

Post match the world number 25 revealed he suffers from asthma and warned the potent scent of marijuana could harm players. "People don't know I'm a heavy asthmatic," said Kyrgios after the match.
