As expected, Nick Kyrgios did not miss the opportunity to criticize Rafael Nadal, especially after the complaint that Medvedev made to the referee Mohamed Lahyani about the time and reminded him of the delay between serves of the Spaniard. So, the Australian, on the 'Unscripted' podcast, echoed the Russian's sentiment: "You have a timer to serve between points, right? It should be 25 seconds. Rafa is known for stretching out the times. There have been times when he has taken a minute and a half to start points, and no one says anything. But as soon as it goes over 26 seconds, they say, 'Code violation, serve-losing,' and I tell them: 'Brother, is there any discretion here or can Rafa do whatever he wants?'

During several years of his sports career, Nick Kyrgios had Andy Murray as one of his main supporters. The Australian constantly praised the Scotsman, placing him on par with the Big Three and mentioning that he was always one of those players who stood by him, giving him advice and good wishes. However, Nick pointed out in a chat with Unscripted that, nowadays, little of that remains: "I don't know anymore if he's my friend or not. I guess he's an acquaintance, we used to be closer. We don't talk much. I wanted him to come to my podcast and he acted as if he was too important. That's the truth. I thought: 'Dude, make some time'". At the very least, a curious annoyance.

The words of Nick Kyrgios about 'The Battle of the Sexes' that he will play next January against Aryna Sabalenka were, to say the least, controversial. The world number one responded to the Australian: "It's a great idea, spectacular. It will be fun, especially against someone like Nick. As she said in another interview, I truly believe that I'm going to win and that I will definitely go out to fight and do everything possible to beat him. It would be great if I could beat him, but for now, we don't know where it will be."

The Serbian talks about the factors in Kyrgios' career and reveals interesting details about their relationship. "He sends me videos when he goes out partying and drinks."
Nick Kyrgios and Aryna Sabalenka will compete in Hong Kong during the first week of January 2026 in a highly publicized match, named the Battle of the Sexes. The Australian was asked about it in a conversation with Bublik on a podcast, and his response implies a clear lack of respect and trivialization of women's tennis and Aryna Sabalenka.
"I am very excited about that match; she has a great personality and is a magnificent tennis player. It amuses me that, really, she thinks she can win," he said before Bublik presented that option as realistic. "Do you truly think she can beat me? She won't. Do you seriously believe I have to play at 100%? I will try to stay focused because I represent the men; I think I'll win 6-2," he said, displaying an arrogant attitude in stating that with his serves and some drop shots, he will dismantle the Belarusian.

“She isn’t going to beat me. Do you really think I have to try 100%? But I’m gonna try, I’ll be focused. I’m representing the men’s side. I’d say 6–2 maybe.”
