“It’s not fair” – Nick Kyrgios makes eye-opening remark on what ‘pisses him off’ about Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek’s doping controversies
Nick Kyrgios has laid bare where his anger at Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek’s doping rows stems from. The Australian opened up about the subject recently in a discussion with American former ATP stars Sam Querrey, Steve Johnson and Jack Sock.
Querrey, Johnson and Sock, alongside John Isner, are the co-hosts of the Nothing Major podcast. Kyrgios was the latest high-profile tennis personality to feature on the podcast as a guest, and he spoke to the Americans (Isner didn’t feature in this particular episode) about his thoughts on Sinner and Swiatek’s doping controversies that rocked the tennis world in 2024.
“Honestly, it’s nothing personal. Like, I’ve got nothing personal on Iga. I just think that it should be a level playing field for everyone and that’s what pisses me off. Because I know these guys it feels like they already have an advantage because they’re just Gods and then taking all these other performance enhancing drugs just like for me, it makes me angry because I know that me personally, I’ve never done it and I won’t ever do it,” Nick Kyrgios said.
“Then this guy is rubbing cream all over his body that gives him (referring to Jannik Sinner) some crazy aura. It’s not fair. That’s why I’m angry about it,” he added.
Nick Kyrgios also went on to opine that Jannik Sinner and Iga Swiatek portrayed themselves as victims in the aftermath of their respective doping revelations, which made him even angrier.
