MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA – Nick Kyrgios has hit back at claims that his ex-girlfriend Anna Kalinskaya is influencing his feud with Jannik Sinner. The Australian tennis star took to social media to dismiss the rumors, saying he “couldn’t care less” where Sinner lays his head.
The feud between Kyrgios and Sinner has been simmering for months, with the two players exchanging barbs on social media. However, things took a turn for the worse when Kalinskaya, who dated Kyrgios in the past, was spotted watching Sinner’s match at the Australian Open.
Rumors began to circulate that Kalinskaya was influencing Kyrgios’ behavior, fueling his anger towards Sinner. However, Kyrgios was quick to dismiss the claims, taking to Twitter to set the record straight.
“Couldn’t care less where Jannik Sinner lays his wood,” Kyrgios tweeted. “My issue with him has nothing to do with Anna or anyone else. It’s about his disrespect and lack of sportsmanship on the court.”
Kyrgios also took aim at the media, accusing them of sensationalizing the story and trying to create drama where none exists.
“It’s amazing how you guys can take a simple tweet and turn it into a whole soap opera,” Kyrgios wrote. “I’m not going to engage in any more of this nonsense. My focus is on my tennis and winning matches, not on petty feuds and drama.”
The feud between Kyrgios and Sinner is likely to continue, with the two players set to face off in the coming weeks. However, Kyrgios has made it clear that he’s not going to let the drama get in the way of his tennis.
“I’m going to keep doing what I do best – playing tennis and speaking my mind,” Kyrgios said. “If people don’t like it, that’s their problem, not mine.”
