Kyrgios was involved in several prickly chats with a number of those in the crowd as well as the line judges throughout the round one contest. Kyrgios has long had a good relationship with the Wimbledon crowd but knew he would be the villain up against home favourite Jubb, who made an impressive start and claimed a decisive break in the eighth game to take the first set in 23 minutes.
His chats with the umpire were more cordial but on one occasion he did ask: “I don’t go to their nine to five and start clapping when they’re scanning s*** at a supermarket do I? Go ‘boo, well done, you can’t scan that thing for s***’…You should remove them from the crowd.” “I love this tournament. It’s got nothing to do with Wimbledon.
