Nick Kyrgios is making a lot of noise during the Australian Open.
After having a sip of beer offered by a spectator last week, the tennis player gave a racket to a child during a match… to make up for hitting a ball on him!
After a serve from his doubles partner hit the net, Kyrgios let off steam on the ball for no apparent reason. But the bullet hit a little boy who was sitting in the stands, directly in the chest.
Nick Kyrgios accidentally hit a kid in the crowd with a wayward shot… ????
So he gives him his RACKET in a special moment. ????❤️#AusOpen – Live on 9Now pic.twitter.com/pZ4ooL7ljY

This is 9-year-old Fin Crane! Thankfully, he’s all ok after getting accidentally cleaned up after errant ball flew into the crowd at the Kyrgios/Kokkinakis match – @NickKyrgios made sure he goes home with a nice souvenir! What a little legend #AO2022 pic.twitter.com/VntUaJa0T7

Must say that Kyrgios was simply on fire during the meeting.
