SHANGHAI -- A year after being fined for tanking a match at the Shanghai Masters, Nick Kyrgios quit another one altogether.
The temperamental Australian argued several times with the chair umpire during his first-round match against Steve Johnson on Tuesday. After losing the tiebreaker 7-6 (5), Kyrgios shook hands with Johnson at the net and then with the chair umpire before packing his bags and walking off court.
Kyrgios later tweeted that he was suffering from the effects of a stomach bug and a sore shoulder.
Just a little something to explain what happened in Shanghai today....#Sorry pic.twitter.com/V85qfrbixb— Nicholas Kyrgios (@NickKyrgios) October 10, 2017
