Nick Kyrgios has revealed that he was once so distracted by an attractive fan in the crowd that he couldn’t concentrate during a game against Roger Federer

The Aussie admitted he ‘wanted to take him for a drink’ and added that when he doesn’t see anyone he is close to attractive fans every week

The 25-year-old, who has not returned to the ATP Tour since her reboot following the coronavirus crisis, was dating Russian tennis player Anna Kalinskaya, 21, but they broke up in March and he has now done more titles in a Q&A with fans while playing the popular Fortnite video game with Twitch user babztv1

Nick Kyrgios revealed he was distracted by an attractive fan staring at him in the crowd

Kyrgios explained to those watching: ‘Yes Seriously, if I don’t see anyone it’s a weekly thing

‘I was cutting out « Fedz » [Roger Federer] and I was like, « Shit » I wanted to take him out for a drink

‘Eastern Europeans just have my heart on the go Great Eastern Europeans, I’m just like’ Take half of my income  »

Frankish Kyrgios was recently in a war of words with former players Mats Wilander and Boris Becker over various issues, and also had a pop to world number 1 Novak Djokovic last month

The controversial Australian star, who did not show up at this year’s US Open or French Open due to COVID-19 fears, posted a Twitter poll last month asking how many years he would be banned if he had hit a ball at a linesman like Djokovic did in New York

Djokovic was disqualified from the tournament and lost his entire $ 250,000 (£ 192,000) prize as a result, and Kyrgios insists he will continue to highlight bad behavior, especially around the pandemic

« I’m just trying to hold people accountable for their actions. You can’t compare what someone does off the court to on the pitch, » Kyrgios said in Canberra last month, where his foundation NK was part of a government plan to open a new tennis center

Kyrgios set up this online poll asking how people would react if he did the same as Djokovic

‘When I see people making mistakes I won’t talk about it, but if they stand up for it and keep making the same mistakes, especially in a global pandemic, I’m going to say something about it

‘I’m not saying this just to draw attention to myself, I’m really trying to get people that need to be put online We have to work as a team or it will continue

‘Sport won’t be the same I don’t want to live with restrictions I want things to get back to normal’
