During a recent charity event, Nick Kyrgios engaged in a candid conversation with the world’s number one player, Novak Djokovic, and offered a humorous piece of advice for players set to face the Serbian tennis maestro at the Australian Open 2024. Kyrgios playfully suggested that opponents might want to consider booking their return tickets in advance at reasonable prices, indicating the formidable challenge presented by Djokovic on the court.
In a lighthearted moment, Kyrgios, while going through the men’s singles draw in a video on the Australian Open’s X page, shared this humorous advice for those set to compete against Djokovic.
“You just book your flight home on the best price,” he said
The Serbian player, who has secured the top seed in the Australian Open draw for men’s singles, is on a quest for an 11th Norman Brooks Challenge Cup trophy. His journey begins against qualifier Dino Prizmic.
Djokovic boasts a remarkable record, having clinched the Australian Open title 10 times, establishing him as the player with the most victories in the tournament across all categories.
Unfortunately, Kyrgios, facing ongoing struggles with injuries, will miss the Happy Slam for the second consecutive year. Despite being sidelined from the competition, he has found another way to stay involved by taking on a role as a commentator for Eurosport’s coverage of the Melbourne event.
