Australian sports commentator, Kane Cornes took a harsh dig at Australian tennis player and World No.192, Nick Kyrgios calling him an absolute waste of great potential as he has still not confirmed his comeback to the sport after taking an indefinite break ever since his injury.

As Nick Kyrgios has once again withdrawn from a second Australian Open in a row citing injury concerns, the sports commentator went so far as to call the former Word No.11 as (via The Roar):

Greatest waste of talent we've ever seen.

The Australian tennis star has recently been in the limelight for all the wrong reasons. First, his announcement of setting up an Only Fans account and secondly, skipping a second consecutive Australian Open this year as he still has not recovered from his injuries has triggered his fans. Tennis followers have constantly attacked the 2022 Wimbledon finalist for wasting such great potential and claim that his attitude and personality are one of the main reasons why he is not able to compete at the highest level.

The Australian has repeatedly mentioned how he is fed up with people judging his game and personal life. Tired of being labeled as a wasted talent, the tennis player last year hoped that he would play some amazing tennis and have a good season to seal the mouths of critics who might then leave him at peace and let him enjoy some time off from the sport. However, having reached the Wimbledon finals last year, he lost to Novak Djokovic but also proved to the people that he is capable of winning a Slam one day.

Nick Kyrgios still dreams of winning at least one Slam in his career having come so close in 2022

The Australian tennis star has stated that he still has a passion and drive to win at least one Grand Slam in his career to silence his haters.

After having come so close during the 2022 Wimbledon finals where he lost to Novak Djokovic, the Australian stated how he still thinks of how devastating it was for him to have come so near to winning one of the biggest tennis events of all time.

However, his aims and ambitions have been further postponed as he will not play at the upcoming 2024 Australian Open and his comeback to the sport has been pushed due to injury concerns. It will be interesting to see how soon Nick Kyrgios is able to get back to the top and fulfil his ambitions in the coming years.
