The Australian star, Nick Kyrgios, comments on the potential existing players in the Australian Open draw after the top seeds are knocked out. The Australian Open this year has seen unprecedented upsets. Right from the beginning of the tournament, world No. 1, Carlos Alcaraz, pulled out of the major. He was followed by the local star, Nick Kyrgios.

In addition, the top two seeded players in men’s singles, Rafael Nadal and Casper Ruud are now eliminated in the second round. This is making it easy for the rest of the title contenders, and on the other hand, the major is losing its toughness. As a result, matches can become one-sided. However, this is the format, so no one can complain about it.

Fans also witnessed other top-seed upsets through the likes of Alexander Zverev and Taylor Fritz. They are also knocked out early from Australian Open. This resulted in a big opportunity for a lot of new players and underdogs to see themselves in the semi-finals.
