The out-spoken Australian regularly picks up fines for smashing rackets and shouts at umpires.<\/p>\n<p>In total, Kyrgios has been slapped with \u00a3452,000 worth of fines &#8211; and his career is not over yet. That is way above the total accumalated by Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic. &#8220;It goes to charity so on the flip side, I&#8217;m the most generous ATP player ever,&#8221; Kyrgios told Piers Morgan.<\/p>\n<p>Kyrgios was obviously speaking very tongue-in-cheek with his reponse to being the most fined player of all time. But the 28-year-old does give a lot of his time to charity, particularly the Nick Kyrgios Foundation, which he set up to help underpriviledged kids get into sport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA couple of years ago I had a vision \u2013 to build a facility for disadvantaged and underprivileged kids, where they could hang out, be safe, and feel like they were part of a family,\u201d Kyrgios says on the Nick Kyrgios Foundation website.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/72\/590x\/secondary\/5110663.jpg?r=1702370523275\"><\/p>\n<p>The Wimbledon finalist is currently recovering from an injury that ravaged his 2022 campaign.

People would be struggling, they would be like, \u2018What do I do? Who\u2019s my identity?\u2019. This year, it\u2019s been equally as enjoyable as last year. That\u2019s just my personality and how different it is. That\u2019s the crazy thing.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added: &#8220;I just don\u2019t think I could do three seasons like that in a row. I wouldn\u2019t be able to play anymore. I was spent after I got home after the U.S. Open, I was cooked. I was so mentally fried. I was just so tired. Physically, I felt fine but just mentally, I was over it. So maybe this year is a counterbalance.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/tennis\/1844551\/Nick-Kyrgios-Federer-Nadal-Djokovic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Nick Kyrgios says he is the most generous player on the ATP tour &#8211; due to his enormous penalty bill.
