“Regardless of what players say, my opinions won’t change,” Kyrgios said ahead of the Fever-Tree Championships at Queen’s Club next week.
“A couple of people [in the locker room] have loved it actually.
“I’m not going to mention names, but regardless if people like it or don’t like it they were just my honest thoughts.”
