Nick Kyrgios shared glimpses of the highlights of his trip to his mother Norlaila's home country, Malaysia. Kyrgios' girlfriend, Costeen Hatzi, and sister, Halimah, also joined him.

Norlaila was born as Tengku (Princess) of Pahang, a Malaysian state. Moving away from her royal roots, Norlaila pursued computer engineering and moved to Australia. Here, she met her husband and Kyrgios' father Giorgos and soon married him.

More often than not, Norlaila maintains a low profile due to her troubles with anxiety. She lives with a heart condition as well, which restricts her from traveling to Kyrgios' matches.

Recently, Kyrgios shared moments from the trip to Malaysia on social media. One picture featured Hatzi with a young man who joined the group, enjoying Malaysia's street food. Kyrgios captioned it:

The group also visited the Batu Caves, a famed Hindu shrine. One picture featured the group walking past the Murugan Statue, which is among the tallest statues in the world and a pilgrimage site for devotees of Murugan, the Hindu god of war.

Kyrgios is Giorgos and Norlaila's third child. Currently, the 28-year-old is inactive on the tennis front as he recuperates from a long injury layoff. Kyrgios' last appearance in competitive action came at last year's Stuttgart Open, where he suffered a first-round loss.
