Nick Kyrgios has refused to back down in the row over his decision to break Wimbledon’s strict dress code. 'Any publicity is good publicity, right?'
Asked afterwards why he had deliberately broken the rule stating that players must wear all white on court, the Australian offered a curt response.
Asked if he felt above the rules he added: ‘No, I’m not above the rules. I just like wearing my Jordans. That’s okay. I’ll wear some Triple Whites tomorrow.’ Kyrgios’ battle against Tsitsipas was undoubtedly the most talked-about match of the tournament so far, with the Australian receiving plenty of criticism for his on-court behaviour.‘Honestly, I don’t care,’ said Kyrgios. ‘I just smile. It’s so funny. I joke around with my team about it so much. It’s hilarious.
‘I have a massive chip on my shoulder. I sit here now in the quarter-finals of Wimbledon again, and I just know there’s so many people that are so upset.’
