The 24-year-old let rip after he had been given a code violation by umpire Fergus Murphy for querying a line call on a set point in his first-round match with Roberto Carballes Baena of Spain. “I'm not going to give 100 per cent when I've got linesmen rigging the game; I don't want to play,” said Kyrgios.
“I thought some of the calls were outrageous today. It shouldn't have to come down to me and Felix giving each other points,” said Kyrgios after playing on an outside court without Hawk-Eye technology.His outburst at the Rome Masters which saw him default a second-round tie against Norway's Casper Ruud cost him a €20,000 fine, along with his €34,000 prize money.
