Australian tennis legend Pat Cash believes fellow Aussie star Nick Kyrgios has what it takes to win the Wimbledon title, despite his recent controversies at this year’s event. Kyrgios has seemingly been on the lips of every tennis fan this summer following his antics on and off the court.
The world No. 40 has had a number of fiery run-ins with his opponents, umpires, the media and even the crowd at this year’s Wimbledon, and has found himself in trouble with tournament bosses on more than one occasion. In typical Kyrgios fashion though he has continued to put on a show, and now finds himself in the last eight of the tournament alongside some of the sport’s greats.
The Australian Open doubles champion knows he is now just three wins away from securing a maiden Grand Slam singles title, and the first hurdle in his way is Chile’s Cristian Garín this afternoon’s quarter-final.
