Nick Kyrgios complains about ‘drunk’ spectator during Wimbledon final

Don't think Kyrgios was very happy

Nick Kyrgios voiced his frustration with a 'drunk' spectator during his Wimbledon final against Novak Djokovic. The Australian, in first major singles final, took the first set 6-4 in 30 minutes. However, Djokovic produced an immediate reply to a Kyrgios' strong start by taking the second set 6-3. During the third set, Kyrgios was visibly annoyed with one spectator in particular, with the 27-year-old complaining about a woman to the umpire. Kyrgios pointed out the spectator, who he claimed was in the front row and inebriated. The umpire gave him a code violation for his persistent yelling and foul language. He asked the umpire to eject the woman, however, the official said, "I don't know which one it is", to which Kyrgios replied: "It’s the one who looks like she’s had seven hundred drinks, bro." https://twitter.com/SportsJOE_UK/status/1546152232332189697 Djokovic - the reigning champion - battled back to take the lead in the tie and took the third set to go 2-1 ahead of the incredibly frustrated Kyrgios.
