Nick Kyrgios trolls Djokovic in savage Instagram post
To say Nick Kyrgios isn’t a fan of Novak Djokovic is probably the kindest way you could put it.
The feud between the two supposedly began in 2019, with Kyrgios claiming that Djokovic wanted to be everyone’s cup of tea.

“I just feel like he has a sick obsession with wanting to be liked,” Kyrgios said on the No Challenges Remaining podcast.
“He just wants to be like Roger (Federer).”
The feud has taken many twists and turns, with the vast majority of sledges coming from the Australian’s side.

Now, the 26-year-old has jokingly claimed that Djokovic wouldn’t have emerged victorious at the French Open if it wasn’t for him.
A cheeky post on his Instagram shows the two on a clay court, presumably before a friendly practice session.
Kyrgios captioned the post: “Yes this photo is real … how u think he won RG.”

Djokovic won the French Open for just the second time in his career last week, after outlasting Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-7 (6-8), 2-6, 6-3, 6-2, 6-4.
The Serbian also managed to defeat Rafael Nadal — widely regarded as the king of clay — on his way to the final.
He goes into Wimbledon as the World No. 1 and will look to equal the grand slam title record set by Federer and Nadal.
Kyrgios did not participate in this year’s edition of the French Open, supposedly because he simply doesn’t enjoy playing on clay and didn’t want to travel overseas during a global pandemic.
However, the Canberra native plans to take the court at Wimbledon, which kicks off on June 28.
