SloveniaFormer top-ten tennis player Stefanos Cicipas commented on the recent suspension of Australian player Nick Kyrgios, who faces up to four years of playing ban due to a positive cocaine test. Cicipas, who had previously clashed with Kyrgios at Wimbledon in 2022, stated he was not surprised by the suspension, noting that such incidents often occur off the court. He criticized Kyrgios' behavior, calling him a bully, and expressed concern over his dark side. Kyrgios has faced multiple injuries and has struggled since the start of the 2023 season. After admitting to a major mistake, Kyrgios now faces potential bans ranging from three months to four years, depending on whether he can prove the cocaine was ingested outside competition.
