Nick Kyrgios was at his entertaining best at the 2022 Australian Open, coasting to a 6-4, 6-4, 6-3 victory over qualifier Liam Broady in his first-round match on Tuesday. The mercurial Australian delighted the crowd at the John Cain Arena with his antics, with Broady surprisingly joining in the fun as well.As early as the second game of the opening set, Kyrgios pulled off an underarm serve. To spice things up a bit, the World No. 114 improvised by hitting the ball from between his legs.Understandably, the incident immediately went viral on social media. The clip of the serve was shared by the official Twitter handle of the Australian Open, praising the show put on by the 26-year-old."Your front row seat to the @NickKyrgios show," the video was captioned on Twitter.#AusOpen@AustralianOpenYour front row seat to the @NickKyrgios show 🤩: @wwos • @espn • @Eurosport • @wowowtennis #AO2022 • #AusOpen2:22 PM · Jan 18, 20222059419Your front row seat to the @NickKyrgios show 🤩🎥: @wwos • @espn • @Eurosport • @wowowtennis #AO2022 • #AusOpen https://t.co/SBK0xzEsS9"Nick Kyrgios with a sensational between-the-legs serve," Oddspedia's Twitter account wrote.Oddspedia ⚽️🏀🎾🥊@oddspediaNick Kyrgios with a sensational between-the-legs serve 🤯#AusOpen 4:00 PM · Jan 18, 2022219Nick Kyrgios with a sensational between-the-legs serve 🤯#AusOpen https://t.co/H5T4cM0aKu"Kyrgios first set included an under arm between the legs serve.
