Nick Kyrgios is fondly known as the ‘bad boy of tennis’. The 28-year-old Australian is known for his on-court antics. While his emotional outbursts are often talked about, Kyrgios is also criticized for not taking the game seriously. His shot-making was also questioned at every juncture. However, the Australian is least bothered about such criticism.

As Kyrgios has stated many times before, the 28-year-old enjoys his game and does things that he feels are right in a certain situation. Kyrgios echoed his statements during a chat with American businessman Gary Vaynerchuk.

The 28-year-old said that while he was questioned for his shots every single time, he continued playing them because he liked it. Kyrgios also claimed that the younger generation takes inspiration from him and he is happy to see them enjoying themselves on the court.

My entire childhood when I'm playing tennis I am always asked by coaches 'Why am I doing this?' I am playing these shots under pressure and everyone is like 'he has got no discipline'. I am playing these because in the moment it feels right to me and I look at kids playing this way, it inspires me.
