Djokovic and Kyrgios fan fury as Wimbledon finalists FALL in rankings – ‘F***ing stupid’ | Tennis | Sport
Making it to the Wimbledon final is by far Kyrgios’ best career result, having previously never progressed further than the quarter-finals. The 27-year-old has never made it into the world’s top 10, with his best form tending to emerge in short bursts.
As for Djokovic, the Serb certainly played like the world’s best at SW19 as he routinely fought back from deficits to out-stay his opponents. Having just earned his 21st Grand Slam title and seventh at Wimbledon, it moves him to within one of all-time leader Rafael Nadal.
On the women’s side, the All England Club were left red-faced in the end as Moscow-born Elena Rybakina triumphed over Ons Jabeur in three sets. The big-serving 23-year-old switched international allegiance to Kazakhstan four years ago, but some Russian media have claimed the run as a national success.
