CLOSE During the Italian Open, tennis pro Nick Kyrgios threw a chair onto the court after receiving an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. USA TODAY
Kyrgios was already suspended by the ATP Tour in 2016 for "tanking" a match and insulting fans during a loss at the Shanghai Masters. Kyrgios was also fined 20,000 Euros for the three unsportsmanlike conduct penalties he received during the match and must cover the cost of his hospitality during the tournament, the ATP said.
In 2015, Kyrgios insulted Stan Wawrinka with crude remarks during a match in Montreal. He was fined $12,500 and given a suspended 28-day ban. He also attracted criticism for deciding not to play at the Olympics because of a spat with an Australian team official, and for firing back at retired players who have offered advice.RETIREMENT: David Ferrer's tennis career at Madrid Open

What exactly was he mad about, 'I hate that tennis balls are yellow'

He appears hysterical....might need mental health support.
Lame am waiting for him to kill an opponent or the ref during a game.
Just like a little toddler, does he have to have help going to the toilet too?

What this outburst cost Kyrgios... - £17,461 fine - Lost prize money of £29,366 - forfeited the 45 ranking points gained during the tournament - told to cover the costs of his hospitality The last one tho lolol.
Get him on The Perfect Back & he will longer have these outbursts b/c his body will be in balance which it clearly isn’t now.
WE NOTICE YOU............
The way the towel girl handed him the towel and quickly ran away is like she’s afraid he might go off on her 😂
Someone definitely needs a hug.
Cool off bro...have another cold beer...
NickKyrgios has more hissy meltdowns than Kilauea & Tasmanian Devil combined. He should do himself and the tennis world a favour and just retire for good. NickKyrgios tantrum loser
AnoNQcue He's not a pro.
tennis and comedy in one show, perfectly unhinged for our entertainment. he should bring a bag of chairs to every match ongoing. harmless, classic bark worse than bite syndrome, if only the world we live in was the same
Maybe that’s why he was mad? 🤷🏽♂️
Hey, I absolutely love that court. The trees, the shadows and stuff .. brilliant.
Is he not 'hysterical' or does this just apply to women (Serena) smh
Could Nick Kyrgios be suffering from mental illness?
I think he has mental health issues and also, he is bored. I'm a fan & love what he brings to the game in terms of flair but throwing chairs? WTF Nick.
Who does he think he is John McEnroe?
Hmmm. I’m having a Serena Williams flashback. When does he get fined $17,000?
Grow up and play nice. Otherwise, don’t play. Applies to life, not just tennis. Pretty simple.
He should probably come to Nigeria and behave like that, and we will teach him how to cure madness... What nonsense!!!
Man he’s bringing tennis to another level.. and that’s bad ass makes me want to watch tennis now .. lmao 😂
Tennis should involve tackling and joint locks.
I think he needs a lengthy suspension.
I love tennis but,I'm not good in playing it.That's awesome
