Uwoe Jous$ Nick Kyrgios wows Wimbledon with 135mph serve

Nick Kyrgios thought his first-round match was one of the worst he's ever played at Wimbledon; his performance against Filip Krajinovic two days later, however, may have been his best.


The Australian produced a serving masterclass as he swept aside Krajinovic, a beaten finalist at Queen's Club two weeks ago, in just an hour and 25 minutes on Thursday, rocketing 24 aces over the course of a 6-2 6-3 6-1 victory.

It was a statement performance -- and Kyrgios knew it.

"I just wanted to prove to people that I'm really good," he told reporters, "and I feel like I just don't have the respect sometimes."

Kyrgios has long proved a divisive figure in tennis -- on the one hand, one of the game's great entertainers and talents; on the other, a player who garners criticism for his on-court behavior and outbursts towards umpires.

But against Krajinovic, he let his tennis do the talking, and at times, he appeared entirely unplayable.

It wasn't until the start of the second set that the Serbian took a point off Krygios' serve -- something he only managed to do nine times throughout the match.


The on-court speed gun stopped working at one point, but it later flashed back into life in time to clock a Kyrgios serve at 135 miles per hour -- eight mph short of his tournament record from 2019.

Mixed in with his masterful serving were some deft touches -- notably, a perfectly weighted lob that delivered his first break of the third set, sparking chants of "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie" from his golden-clad fans -- and clean, accurate ball striking from the baseline.

"I really wanted to go out there today and remind everyone that I'm able to play some really good tennis without any distractions," Kyrgios said. "The crowd enjoyed it today and it was just business-like."

The 27-year-old hasn't always endeared himself to the Wimbledon crowd. He admitted after his first-round match against Britain's Paul Jubb that he spat towards a fan he felt was "disrespecting" him.

When asked about that incident after Thursday's game, Kyrgios was bullish. "I played Filip Krajinovic today. Do you not want to know how I played?" he shot back.

Kyrgios pitted himself against the media on several occasions during the post-match press conference.

"There was just nothing the media could possibly tell me I did wrong today," he said as he reflected on his performance.

"I just know that you can't possibly ask me anything and stir anything up. I love it because you can't write anything. What are you going to say? Nothing today. I've dumbfounded all of you."

Indeed, some of his shots against Krajinovic were breathtakingly good. He racked up 50 winners during the match, including a jabbed backhand return to seal the victory.

That set up a hugely exciting third-round clash against Stefanos Tsitsipas after the fourth seed's straight-sets victory against Jordan Thompson.

Novak Djokovic defeats Jannik Sinner to reach Wimbledon semifinals

It’s getting to the point where whenever Novak Djokovic gets down two sets at a Grand Slam, he’ll be an even bigger   favorite   than he was at the start of a match. If he isn’t already. For the seventh time in his career, Djokovic pulled off the feat yesterday at Wimbledon, hoodwinking future star Jannik Sinner into the impostor of hope before yanking it away in a 5-7 2-6 6-3 6-2 6-2 advancement to the semifinals. Djokovic had looked completely spent in the second set after blowing a 4-1 lead in the first. It’s rare that he looks tired and out of sorts, given that he’s one of the fittest people on the planet. You can almost always count on Djokovic to get to most everything, even if his shotmaking goes off the boil for a bit. But that wasn’t the case in the second set, when he actually looked 35 and gave everyone around that age a glimmer of hope that it does indeed come for everyone. The look of lethargy shouldn’t have fooled us, and perhaps Sinner knew what was coming as even though
