‘Special Ks’ roll into Australian Open doubles final theSun theSundaily tennis Kyrgios Kokkinakis AustralianOpen

Australia’s Thanasi Kokkinakis and Australia’s Nick Kyrgios react after winning against Spain’s Marcel Granollers and Argentina’s Horacio Zeballos during their men’s doubles semi-final match on day eleven of the Australian Open tennis tournament in Melbourne on January 27, 2022. AFPPIX: The “Special Ks” show will have one final episode at the Australian Open after Nick Kyrgios and Thanasi Kokkinakis progressed to the men’s doubles final against compatriots Max Purcell and Matt Ebden.

“It sounds stupid, but winning has been our second priority every time,“ Kokkinakis told reporters. “We hope to have fun, enjoy ourselves, enjoy our time on court. Hopefully they feel like they’ve paid good money to watch us.” The pairing of Kyrgios and Kokkinakis entered the year's first major as wildcards and went on to defeat top seeds Mate Pavic and Nikola Mektic of Croatia in the second round.

As is often the case in matches involving Kyrgios the mercurial Australian lost his cool with the umpire, this time over a net cord sensor. He then rebuked a fan for making a noise while he was in the serving motion.
