After defeating the No. 1-seeded Daniil Medvedev to punch his ticket to the quarterfinals on Sunday night, Nick Kyrgios showed confidence that he can continue his recent stretch of dominant tennis.
“I’m just trying to not let people down,” Kyrgios said to ESPN after beating Medvedev. “I was in this press conference room a while back and I lost in the third round, it was the worst feeling because I’ve just got so much expectation. I’m finally able to show it now. I feel like I’ve been working really hard. I’ve just got a lot of motivation at the moment.”
Nick Kyrgios is set to take on Karen Kachanov at Arthur Ashe stadium on Tuesday night with a potential trip to the semifinals on the line. The Australian is a -450 favorite to win the match.
“It’s the last biggest tournament of the year,” Kyrgios said. “We do realize it’s next week we’re going home. But three more matches potentially, then we never have to play tennis again.”
