Australian tennis bad boy Nick Kyrgios has lashed out in yet another on-court tantrum, this time at jeering fans during a drama-filled quarter final showdown at the Mexican Open.
Kyrgios met Swiss top seed Stan Wawrinka in a fiery grudge match that was plagued with drama from the outset on Thursday night.
The latest on-court drama comes after Kyrgios sparked a war of words with world number two Rafael Nadal when the defeated Spaniard said the controversial Australian star needed to show more respect to himself, his opponents and the crowd.
Fans jeered Kyrgios as he arrived on court on Friday before the booing erupted again shortly afterwards when he took a tumble in the opening game of the match.
