Fan snubs Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal to ink massive Nick Kyrgios tattoo, Aussie tennis star shouts out to all the love on social media

Tennis often revolves around the Big Three, Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic. Fans are split among the big three, the top news is usually about them, and youngsters usually idolize these stars. However, one fan snubbed these big players and got a tattoo of another tennis superstar. 

A fan recently shared a picture of himself getting a Nick Kyrgios tattoo. Not Rafa, not Roger, but Kyrgios. The fan shared a heartfelt note for the Australian Player along with the tattoo. This effort by the fan did not go unnoticed, as the big man himself came across this post and commented on it. 

Kyrgios posted a story on Instagram, dedicated to the fan. Kyrgios captioned the story:

The love is real. 

Nick Kyrgios wrote

He may be known as the “baddest player” in the sport, but he still has a good fan base which was built very organically. This kind of love from fans drives athletes to perform their best on the field, and as for Kyrgios, he takes in this love to improve his recovery and try to get back on the court as soon as possible. 

Nick Kyrgios is only a couple of weeks away from a possible return to tennis

Australian sensation Nick Kyrgios is arguably one of the most talented players in tennis. With accurate hand-eye coordination, the former Wimbledon finalist can even beat the best in the game. Unfortunately, he has been on the sidelines for more than a year because of an ankle injury. 

The Aussie is patiently recovering, trying to make the much-awaited return to tennis, and the love he received from the fan catalyzes the recovery process, driving the player to get back as soon as possible. Recently, a fan even got a tattoo of Kyrgios and rightly so got appreciation from the player himself. 

Kyrgios has been making strides with his recovery, as he posted a couple of videos of training on the court. He also held an Instagram Q&A session, where he revealed that he may make a return to tennis next month if everything goes smoothly. Fans are awaiting this moment, to see one of the unique players back on the court, entertaining everyone in his way.
