Kyrgios’s childhood coach on how the Wimbledon final will affect the tennis star

Nick Kyrgios’s childhood tennis coach thinks the Aussie tennis star can make it to another Grand Slam final, even though he’s not motivated by the sport.

Kyrgios lost to Novak Djokovic in four sets in the Wimbledon final last night.

His former coach Andrew Bulley says the Aussie “now realises that he can do it”.

“He’s been told since he was very young that he could win a Grand Slam and how good he is, and he’s never quite got there,” he told Neil Mitchell.

But Mr Bulley doesn’t think the game motivates Kyrgios.

“I don’t think tennis really motivates him,” he said.

“He does it because he’s very good at it, but he’s not motivated by money or titles or anything like that.”
