Tennis legend Boris Becker recently offered advice to Nick Kyrgios, urging the Australian star to reconsider his criticism of fellow players Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek. Becker, known for his six Grand Slam titles and sharp tennis insight, emphasized that targeting young stars like Sinner and Swiatek publicly might not be the wisest move for Kyrgios.
Kyrgios recently questioned Sinner’s ability to handle high-pressure situations and suggested that Swiatek, despite her dominance, still has gaps in her game. While Kyrgios often speaks his mind, Becker pointed out that such comments could alienate Kyrgios from his peers and even motivate his rivals to prove him wrong on the court.
Becker noted that both Sinner and Swiatek have earned their place at the top of the sport through hard work and consistent performances. Sinner has been a rising force on the ATP Tour, while Swiatek has already claimed multiple Grand Slam titles and the World No. 1 ranking. Criticizing players of their caliber, Becker argued, risks undermining Kyrgios’ own standing and credibility in the tennis world.
Becker’s advice to Kyrgios is simple: focus on his own game rather than critiquing others. Kyrgios has the talent to compete with the best, but engaging in unnecessary controversies could distract from his potential to achieve greatness. Whether Kyrgios heeds the advice remains to be seen, but his outspoken nature continues to keep him in the spotlight.
