Flawed Genius Nick Kyrgios "Comfortable" With Himself
Love him or hate him, the flawed genius that is Nick Kyrgios is one of the most polarising figures on the tennis circuit but he, at least, is "comfortable" with himself. The enigmatic Australian stunned the tennis world as a 19-year-old in 2014 when he beat then world number one Rafael Nadal on his way to the Wimbledon quarter-finals. But frequent tantrums and fines have overshadowed his undoubted talent and he has never achieved a better finish at a Grand Slam. Eight years on, Kyrgios again finds himself in the last eight at Wimbledon and this time with a serious chance to realise his full potential.

It left seasoned press corps wondering if they were indeed in the right room. The Aussie, ranked 40, will play Chile’s Cristian Garin on Wednesday in the only seedless last-eight clash of the men’s singles draw.

Wimbledon: Rafael Nadal charges on despite injury concerns as Simona Halep eyes semis
Rafael Nadal has shrugged off fresh concerns over his fitness as he targets a place in the Wimbledon semi-finals on Wednesday. The 36-year-old Spaniard played his last-16 clash at the All England Club on Monday against Botic van de Zandschulp with strapping across his abdomen. Only last month, he won a 14th French Open with his troublesome left foot anaesthetised before undergoing career-saving treatment. "I'm a little bit tired to talk about my body, all the issues that I am having," said Nadal. "I prefer to not talk about that now. "For the moment I am healthy enough to keep going and fight for the things that I want." Nadal is halfway to the first calendar Grand Slam by a man since Rod Laver in 1969.
