Second Serve

 

Nick Kyrgios has a chance at redemption. The 20-year-old Aussie was handed an additional $25k in fines plus a 28-day suspension from the ATP, but they came with a good behavior clause.


If Kyrgios can avoid fines for any verbal or physical abuse at ATP-sanctioned events OR doesn’t accumulate above $5K in fines for any other offences at ATP events, the Aussie will see his punishment dismissed.

Kyrgios has until February, 24 to clear himself.

"This incident was egregious and reflected poorly on our sport," said Gayle David Bradshaw, the ATP’s executive vice president of rules and competition. "Nick has expressed regret, and the best result would be that he learns a lesson from this incident and that he understands he is responsible to the tour and to fellow players for both his actions and his words."

Kyrgios, who spent some days training with Lleyton Hewitt in the Bahamas after losing in Cincinnati, tweeted that he had arrived in New York earlier on Tuesday.
