"Worse than Zverev and Kyrgios; f*ck him" - Tennis fans angered as Thiago Seyboth Wild's old comments about having Nazi roots resurface

Thiago Seyboth Wild's impressive French Open run has been marred by controversy, with old messages about him taking pride in having Nazi roots coming to light.Seyboth Wild qualified for the main draw of the French Open for the first time in his career this year, and went on to upset World No. 2 Daniil Medvedev in the first round. The Brazilian beat the second seed 7-6(5), 6-7(6), 2-6, 6-3, 6-4 in just over four hours. He then beat Guido Pella too, before losing to Yoshihito Nishioka in the third round.Seyboth Wild's run at Roland Garros has put him in the spotlight, and a lot of past incidents involving the World No. 172 have come to light. It was first reiterated that Seyboth Wild's ex-girlfriend Thayane Lima accused him of domestic abuse in 2021. Now, old messages exchanged between the 23-year-old and his ex-girlfriend show the Brazilian speaking about having Nazi roots.&quot;My great-grandfather, my mother’s father’s father’s father… was Hitler’s predecessor…. He was the one who brought him over from Austria and taught Hitler the life,” the messages read, as published by O Globo.Fans were quick to express their disgust on social media. One fan said that Seyboth Wild was worse than Alexander Zverev and Nick Kyrgios, both of whom have been accused of domestic abuse in the past.&quot;There's a guy worse than Zverev and Kyrgios, like that was even possible.Can ATP throw him out already,&quot;
