He also used the examples of Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams to support his actions. He feels that the timing of these actions is very important as breaking loose a racquet can help in letting the anger out and starting off fresh yet again during the match.

He said:

Other athletes like Djokovic and Serena Williams, all these legends have broken racquets but the response after that is the key component and sometimes you need to let off that steam because you are expecting more from yourself and I feel like the response if you are gonna come back with energy and you know say I did that and now its time to reset. That, it can actually help you in a way.

Kyrgios stated that if there was another chance were he could rest his life and start over again, he would never touch the racquet. He also revealed the fact that he is not missing the tennis court even after having been sidelined with an injury for like seven months now.

Kyrgios sounded quite critical when he chose to talk about his tennis career. For any tennis player who gets sidelined with injuries, they are adamant about getting back on the court and they want to push themselves as hard as possible for faster recovery. This is not the case for Kyrgios as he agreed to be in no hurry to resume tennis.
