Nick Kyrgios rubbishes claims of Anna Kalinskaya being reason behind controversial remarks on Jannik Sinner; slams ‘sheep’ Andy Roddick

Nick Kyrgios has dismissed claims that Anna Kalinskaya was the reason behind his controversial remarks about Jannik Sinner, while also taking a swipe at former tennis star Andy Roddick, referring to him as a “sheep.” The outspoken Australian player, known for his candid and often provocative statements, addressed the rumors in a recent social media post, making it clear that Kalinskaya, who is dating Sinner, had nothing to do with his comments.

Kyrgios came under fire after making critical remarks about Sinner, leading to speculation that his comments were driven by personal feelings related to Kalinskaya. However, Kyrgios was quick to shut down those rumors, labeling them as baseless and calling out the media for sensationalizing the situation. He emphasized that his criticism of Sinner was purely based on tennis and had nothing to do with Kalinskaya.

In the same breath, Kyrgios took aim at Andy Roddick, the former American tennis star, for what he perceives as blindly following the narrative spun by the media. Kyrgios referred to Roddick as a “sheep,” implying that Roddick was too quick to believe the rumors without considering the full context. The Australian’s outspoken style often draws both support and criticism, and this instance was no different, as fans and pundits weighed in on the drama.

Despite the ongoing controversies, Kyrgios remains a polarizing figure in tennis, known for his ability to stir up headlines both on and off the court. His comments, though controversial, have not impacted his preparation for the upcoming Australian Open, where fans are eager to see how he will perform amidst the ongoing media storm. Kyrgios’s ability to bounce back from distractions has always been a hallmark of his career, and this latest controversy is unlikely to be any different.
