Nick Kyrgios had a great grasscourt season as he made it to the finals of the 2022 Wimbledon Championship after he received a walkover after Rafael Nadal‘s withdrawal due to injury. He gave a tough competition in his maiden final appearance but lost to the eventual winner Novak Djokovic.Continuing with his fabulous performance at Wimbledon, he went on to clinch his 7th ATP title and the first singles title of the year at the Citi Open where he defeated Yoshihito Nishioka in straight sets getting a good start to the hard-court season.
But his dream run with his performances got a setback when he lost in the quarter-finals of the Canadian Open to Hubert Hurkacz followed by another defeat against Taylor Fritz in the second round at the Cincinnati Open in straight sets within an hour of play. He has already won 31 out of his 40 matches this year and will be looking to continue his great form. He also clinched the doubles title at the Citi Open with his partner Jack Sock defeating Ivan Dodig and Austin Krajicek in straight sets.
