Nick Kyrgios raised eyebrows with a high-speed approach to his service games during his 7-6 6-7 6-1 quarter-final defeat against Poland's Hubert Hurkacz. The Australian averaged 1 minutes and 22 seconds through the first two sets, holding in 44 seconds during one especially speedy second set game. Ad Hurkacz was hardly slow, averaging a little over two minutes himself, but he was put off by Kyrgios' approach, making some quiet comments to the match umpire.
