The Greek star reportedly blamed Kyrgios for spoiling their friendship with his aggressive behavior in a match that saw tensions flare up quite a bit.Kyrgios responded to Tsitsipas' account of the incident, suggesting that the Greek was not innocent himself. The Aussie recalled how Tsitsipas acted out by hitting the ball in anger multiple times, allegedly hurting someone in the crowd in the process.&quot;Right….. this the match he hit someone in the crowd….. belted another ball out of the stadium and got taught a lesson in front of another full stadium…..&quot; Nick Kyrgios wrote on Twitter.Nicholas Kyrgios@NickKyrgiosRight….. this the match he hit someone in the crowd….. belted another ball out of the stadium and got taught a lesson in front of another full stadium….. twitter.com/gigicat7_/stat…Luigi Gatto@gigicat7_Tsitsipas on Kyrgios: &quot;He was the one who broke our relationship.

He was wrong in what he did obviously but do you really believe you are blameless??Nick Kyrgios pleads guilty on assault charge against ex-girlfriend, escapes convictionNick Kyrgios was forced to withdraw from the 2023 Australian Open.Nick Kyrgios avoided conviction after a court judge in Australia dismissed charges of domestic abuse against him made by an ex-girlfriend. This came after the 28-year-old pleaded guilty to the charges, with his lawyers failing to get the case dismissed on mental health grounds. Kyrgios admitted to pushing his ex-girlfriend onto the pavement after she stopped him from driving away following a fight.Magistrate Beth Campbell, who presided over Kyrgios' case, excused the 2022 Wimbledon finalist over a &quot;single act of stupidity or frustration&quot; and &quot;acting in the heat of the moment.&quot;&quot;You acted in the heat of the moment. I am dealing with you in the same way I would deal with any young man in this court. You are a young man who happens to hit a tennis ball particularly well,&quot; she told Kyrgios (via BBC).
