NICK KYRGIOS

It's important to find a balance between Pokemon and training.

I like shoes that, no matter where I am, if I see a basketball or tennis court, I can tie them up and play.

It's good when you're out there on a tennis court. There's nowhere to hide. It's all you, tactically, physically, mentally.

I think if I have a lot of positive energy out there, I'll be fine.

I'm on League Pass watching the NBA, I love seeing what the players are wearing to the games; it gives you a hint as to what they're about off the court and their personality.

If I was to win the U.S. Open or something, I won't play again for the rest of the year.

I was playing basketball at Lifetime Fitness every day for two hours. Like, I played an hour of basketball before I played David Ferrer in the semi-final.

I am very family-orientated.

The thing about tennis life is that it's the same thing every day. You train. You come back to the hotel. You get treatment. You eat. You sleep. You get up.

I've been entertaining since I was kid.

I think at times I get treated a bit unfairly, but then so do other athletes in Australia, and I feel like things can change.

I love just being in Canberra and being with my family, being with my friends.

I think Canadians support their athletes a little better than the Australians do.

It's better to be the underdog than have all the pressure, for sure.

I've always wanted to play Davis Cup. I love Davis Cup.

I don't have a doubt that if I wanted to win Grand Slams, I would commit. I'd train two times a day. I'd go to the gym every day. I'd stretch. I'd do rehab. I'd eat right.

I think more of my tennis is more to do with the mental side of things rather than technique or, you know, tactics or anything like that.

I've got bad and good things, but I'm never going to change.

I like the uniqueness and creativity you can have on a basketball court; there's always a different way to score. Obviously, you have teammates, so it's easier to draw up plays, and tennis, you have your patterns and where you should hit based on percentage.

I feel like the off-season, for me, is not about getting on court and trying to improve or get better. I want to completely step away from the game and, like, really just enjoy my time at home.

Obviously, I'm going to go out there and want to win. Don't get me wrong. But I'm not going to not have fun or not enjoy myself at the same time.

Getting booed off, definitely not the best feeling.

I'm not dedicated to the game at all.

It's just the story of my career, really. I will have good weeks; I'll have bad weeks. It's just a roller-coaster.

I have 'Focus' on my phone, and I watch it every time I have a flight. Best movie ever... it's because of Margot Robbie, by the way.
