WATCH: Entertainment galore from ‘box office’ Nick Kyrgios at Miami Open

Underarm aces, tweeners and no-look shots were just some of the highlights from Nick Kyrgios during his Miami Open victory over Dusan Lajovic.
Just a day after he courted controversy again after calling the chair umpire a “f*****g disgrace” during his doubles match with Taylor Fritz, Kyrgios made sure his racket did all the talking in the singles.
The Australian claimed a comfortable 6-3, 6-1 win over Lajovic to secure his place in the last 16 at the Hard Rock Stadium.
While the match was a one-sided affair, Kyrgios gave the crowd plenty to cheer about.
How about a tweener as early as the third game of the match?
There was also this underarm ace.

Here’s the full highlights package from Tennis TV.
Kyrgios will face Borna Coric in the fourth round after the Serb beat Jeremy Chardy 6-7 (2-7), 6-2, 6-3.
The winner of that match will face either Felix Auger-Aliassime or Nikoloz Basilashvili in the quarter-final.
Canadian wildcard Auger-Aliassime continued his stunning form at the Sunshine Double with a 7-6 (7-5), 6-4 win over Hubert Hurkacz while Basilashvili beat Robin Haase 7-6 (7-3), 6-3.
