Video: Nick Kygrios Hits Dropshot Tweener in Upset of Rafael Nadal


Australian wild card Nick Kyrgios sent shockwaves through the All-England Club on Tuesday as he fired 70 winners to upset Rafael Nadal in the fourth round of Wimbledon, 7-6(5), 5-7, 7-6(5), 6-3. Kyrgios had already made headlines early in the event, saving nine match points en route to upsetting Richard Gasquet in the second round.

Kyrgios showed no fear against the 14-time major champion on his Centre Court debut, hitting 37 aces and dropping serve just once. Kyrgios is the first man to get to the quarterfinals in his Wimbledon debut in 10 years, and the first player ranked outside the top 100 to beat the No. 1 man at a Grand Slam since No. 193 Andrei Olhovskiy defeated Jim Courier at Wimbledon in 1992.

If you needed any confirmation of how much Kyrgios was in the zone to pull off the upset, watch him do this:
