Brtolijeva Kyrgiosa in Monfilsa označila za "patetična"

Avstralec se jo je nemudoma lotil preko twitterja. Ni se mogel zadržati, ko pa mu je Bartolijeva, ki je sicer v karieri osvojila Grand Slam turnir, in sicer prav v Wimbledonu, zabičala, da mu manjka delovna etika, da bi postal zmagovalec. In ni se ustavila tam, nadaljevala je s komentarji, da niti Gael Monfils ni izkoristil potenciala. “Resnično škoda je, saj imata ta dva otroka veliko potenciala. Patetično je, ampak očitno nikoli ne bosta odrasla in postala moška.”

Kyrgios ni dolgo čakal z odgovorom, pridružil pa se mu je tudi “brat” Gael Monfils. Zaradi boljše sporočilnosti pa zapisano ohranjamo v angleščini: “Yesterday Marion Bartoli had to say some nice things about Monfils and myself. They’re ‘Pathetic’ ‘Children’ They ‘Can’t become men’ ‘wasting their life’ – Who are you to judge the way we go about things? Who are you to tell us how to do things, when u have no idea what we’ve been through?…. stop assuming you know what’s best for others when you think you’ve had a little success.. we get it, we know you have to remain relevant, but I’ll give you a heads up, we don’t care what you have to say.”
