The presence of Nick Kyrgios (ATP: 102) is always attractive in tennis tournaments, not only because of his talent, but also because of the style of play that he displays. The Australian prioritizes putting on a good show for the fans and took the opportunity to win applause at the Miami Masters, in the key against Russian Andrey Rublev (ATP: 7).

After winning by a resounding 6-3 in the first set, in 28 minutes of competition, the second game started with the same intensity. The ‘Bad Boy’ of the circuit was firm and, with the comfort of the favorable result, he decided to make a ‘tweener’, the blow that is executed between the legs.

The scoreboard registered a 2-0 in favor of Kyrgios and the Russian tennis player had the serve, which he executed with great power, with the intention of shortening the distance. Despite the complications, the Australian responded well, with the same force, and there was an exchange of shots, which physically wore Andrey Rublev down.

Finally, the representative of Russia made a shot that was not dangerous and Nick took the opportunity to make his luxury move: he placed the racket between his legs and returned the ball. Immediately, there was an effusive shout of joy from all the fans present at the Hard Rock Stadium sports venue.

However, the ‘Bad Boy’ had to fight a few more moments and finalized the partial point with his powerful shots with the right. Finally, the second set decreed a resounding 6-0 for the Australian, after 25 minutes on the field.

In this way, Kyrgios advances to the round of 32 of the Miami Masters, where he will have to measure strength against the Italian Fabio Fognini (ATP: 34), this Sunday, March 27 (8:00 am Peruvian time). Let’s remember that Nick comes from participating in Indian Wells, where he was eliminated by Rafael Nadal in the quarterfinals.
