The former couple were pictured on Twitter attending an NBA match with fellow tennis star Kalinskaya wearing an LA Lakers jersey and the Australian donning a Boston Celtics shirt.

Kyrgios commented: “Second serve.”

That led to a fiery response by fans who stormed social media to give the outspoken Aussie a piece of their mind.

One fan tweeted: “Disgusting.”

Another commented: “So unnecessary..”

A third wrote: “Cheap shot.”

This one said: “He’s being petty now.”

And that one added: “Shameless.”

Kyrgios caught wind of the angry reaction and offered his side on the comments’ section.

Kyrgios responded: “Right… so I’m the one that’s the bad guy for saying something about it? I never brought it up lol don’t take offence if people are gonna bring it up. Simple.”

A Twitter user then claimed he used “abusive” language and disrespectful behaviour.

Kyrgios denied it with the following reply: “Abusive? What’s abusive about what I said? I had no intention to say anything about it. People wanna go there deal with the consequences.”

Sinner is now set for the US Open final where he will face Taylor Fritz on Sunday night.
