WATCH: Nick Kyrgios hits must-see cross-court tweener at Miami Open
Nick Kyrgios is out of the Miami Open, but he certainly didn’t go quietly!
The Australian received a point penalty for code violations after smashing his racket and telling a fan to ‘f*** off’ in his defeat to Borna Coric.
However, just as typically, there was also a moment of breathtaking genius to enjoy.
During the first set, Kyrgios produced a sensational cross-court tweener winner which must be seen to be believed.
Simply INCREDIBLE!🔥
Outrageous skill from @NickKyrgios at the #MiamiOpen 👏

Kyrgios had an eventful tournament in Miami, with Coric summing up the brilliant unpredictability of the Australian before their match.
“Well, we all know Nick,” Coric explained. “He is a great player with a great serve, especially when he has a good day.
“It is hard to predict how good the match would be, it all depends on him.”
