Fellow tennis young gun Thanasi Kokkinakis offers an insight into the side of Nick Kyrgios most people never see.
“He’s a different character obviously,” Thanasi told the FIVEAA sports show, “likes his feelings to be seen.”
“I’ve known him for a while… we’re pretty different people. I’m a bit more low key. If you talk to him outside the court he’s pretty relaxed and he’s easy to talk to, but on court its pretty interesting.
“Obviously your emotions get tested you get fired up, you get frustrated, you get agitated — you kind of see everything from him.
“But when you sit down and talk to him he’s actually fine. When you’re on court is when most people see him. And the he gets pretty agro as you see at times.”

Thanasi also offered an insight into Bernard Tomic off the court…
“Bernie’s probably one of the most chilled out guys you’ll ever see,” he said. “He’s actually a really nice guy — easy to get along with.”
“He’s pretty quiet off the court, and even on the court — you hardly hear him at all.”
