Nick Kyrgios explained why he speaks so often about the doping cases in tennis, because he is the most outspoken voice on the subject.
The Australian tennis player may not have been very active on the courts over the past two years, but he was certainly active on social media and voicing his opinions on various topics.
While he usually posts about his favorite NBA team, the Boston Celtics, after the doping cases of ATP World No. 1 Jannik Sinner and WTA World No. 1 Iga Swiatek were made public, Kyrgios had a regular conversation about those cases.
He believes that Sinner should have received some sort of punishment for his positive test, and he often speaks on the subject. In fact, he talks about it so often, that some former players already told him to quit.
Although Kyrgios often shared his views, especially through his social media accounts, he was finally able to speak to the press ahead of the 2025 Brisbane International, and was naturally asked about his position. The Australian explained it using his own example while recovering from an injury.
“First of all, someone like me, who even in my entire life I would never try to dope in this sport. This is something, especially when you get an injury like I did.”
“Obviously there are things that can speed up healing, help me get back to the top level and aid my recovery. There are so many things that are banned in our sport that I could have done to get me back faster .”
Although Kyrgios recognizes Sinner’s qualities, he believes that doping cases were not handled properly, and that tennis looked terrible just by the fact that they occurred.
“Okay, he’s number 1 in the world, he’s a great tennis player. I never said he isn’t. I just think the treatment should be fair to everyone. I just think it’s becoming atrocious in our sport two worlds.” That number 1 is both punished for doping is disgusting for our sport.’
“Yes, the tennis integrity at the moment, and everyone knows it, but no one wants to talk about it, it’s terrible. It’s actually terrible. And it’s not okay. I know people don’t like it when I just speak out about things and be honest about things.”
Kyrgios was very detailed in his explanation and despite sharing his thoughts, he emphasized again that he would not stop talking about it because he believes it is important to continue the conversation.
“For a kid who grew up playing tennis, I enjoyed the competition, I enjoyed playing. I can get emotional, I can throw a racket, but that’s nothing compared to cheating and taking performance-enhancing drugs. ridiculous in its kind. In my opinion, I’m not going to keep quiet about it.”
