Heated duel at Roland Garros: Kyrgios provoked for Wawrinka Kracher

class=”sc-29f61514-0 kHgAwW”>

This scandal caused a stir eight years ago. Stan Wawrinka (38) and Nick Kyrgios (28) caused quite a stir in the tennis circus in Montreal with their Zoff. The Australian, who was notorious for being a “bad boy”, had provoked Wawrinka with below-the-belt nonsense talk during the match, eventually culminating in the line “Kokkinakis fucked your girlfriend – I’m sorry to tell you”.

Kyrgios was referring to his buddy and compatriot Thanasi Kokkinakis (27), who will now face Wawrinka in the second round at the French Open on Wednesday. And who would have slept with Stan’s then-girlfriend Donna Vekic (26). It has been speculated that the mixed doubles that Kokkinakis and Vekic played together at the 2014 Australian Open could be a possible backdrop.

“Stan doesn’t want to lose this game”

Wawrinka was upset after the Montreal game, saying “I wouldn’t even say something like that to my worst enemy.” Eugène Lapierre, the tournament’s former director, told the “Journal de Québec” last fall that there was almost a fight in the locker room afterwards: “We had to separate the two because it threatened to escalate quickly.”

Wawrinka explained that Kyrgios did not apologize to him afterwards. And Vekic also described the events as “disappointing”.

And now? Now Kyrgios provokes again. Before the second round match, he tweeted, “Kokkinakis vs. Stan (…) for the life we ​​live, Stan won’t want to lose this match.” From a purely sporting point of view, he certainly won’t do that. The explosive sideshow should also provide enough extra motivation.
