The Tennis Match That Turned into a CIRCUS! (Kyrgios vs Paire)

The fact that paire could have won first two sets and lost both of them yet didn't lose him composure is so astonishing. Probably a fiery character like kyrgios can motivate someone like paire to give his best

[@benjaminkriebel3569]

Great stamina to, having to fight back from that and keep it going throughout, I think Kyrgios fell short there in the match

Them breaking each other in critical situations illustrates both of their issues... focus. They can be so good when they're dialed in, but often struggle to sustain the effort.

[@marcosp7053]

Kyrgios's talent is way bigger than Benoit's. Benoit Forehand is TERRIBLE. Benoit just has a good backhand and good touch, that's it.

[@ThorD4602]

Absolutely, there is a massive gulf between the 2. Kyrgios was a generational talent with an inability to control his emotions, paire is a doofus with a backhand

[@BN99239]

@@plinsf It's the drop shots. Kyrgios has big serves and big baseline game. He barely went towards the net even though it was obvious more dropshots were going to come. That's just a weakness in his game that he has to fix.

[@kirikou306]

Paire is a killer. 5 sets with 30 games* scored, what a stamina!

[@wildtofurkey1013]

Can you explain this please?

[@kirikou306]

I meant 5 sets with a total of 30 games scored sorry, I misuse the term "point" which is for one ball point.

[@rooibaard365]

What a battle. Paire really battled to get those first two sets. He didn't give up

[@keithlauderjr1691]

Nick was as good at 19 as he ever was. His game never progressed and his maturity never increased. Such a underachieving. Paire also should have made more noise in his career. Both have extreme talant.

[@jonas8993]

idk about that. Kyrgios didn't commit to his career and progression as much as most pros that's for sure, but 2022 was one of his best year, and he himself said in a podcast it was his best year. Maybe at 19 he was more fit and better cardio but some shots improved imo not even mentioning his experience. As for maturity, I think people are misunderstanding the character. Kyrgios is just far from your traditional pro. Sometimes it's maturity that pushes you to take time off the tour because you aren't doing well. I think he's a dude that had and still has many obstacles to tackle, whether it's bad habits, addictions, mental issues. He's the type of guy that doesn't play by the rules, that won't ever fit the criteria that fans ask for (if that's even possible) and we should just hope for the best, appreciate when he's playing and rethink our expectations. As for Paire, I think he shares some traits with Kyrgios, but I can't say he's had an amazing year recently... Also I don't think Paire is as smart tennis wise as Kyrgios, when you see him still playing with a dysfunctional forehand, serving worse than he used too, barely playing his matches like, why do you even step on court.

[@2brice1]

Not true. 2022 was his best year!

[@squidjames7735]

Aight know it all .., he made a grand slam final and won grand slam doubles. Beat Fed and Nadal. Also beat the GOAT Nole. I bet in the history of ya genius family, NO ONE will achieve that.

[@Fridebuh]

If only Paire turned differently... I'm amazed by his touch. I don't see any french player with that ball control skill.

[@henning_jasper]

What do you mean with turned differently? I don't sadly don't know him at all as a tennis player

[@DopeXchanel]

check Santoro :)

[@Fridebuh]

@@henning_jasper I just meant that if he didn't have the mental toughness of a goat cheese, he would probably have done good stuff. But anyway things are what they are :)

[@TheseHoesAreLoyal]

Tsonga, Monfils and Mahut have better touch than Paire. Paire can sometimes hit wicked dropshots but he can't do that on a regular basis. Too many errors.

[@loganthewolverine2030]

​@@TheseHoesAreLoyalnot Monfils, no sir, brick hands and Paires touch and net game are absolutely rock solid. He's an unbelievable doubles player that never plays because he's worried he will let his partner down.

[@catieferrarer4622]

This proves how good Kyrgios could have been if he hadn't let his antics become his game instead of the tennis

[@benjaminkriebel3569]

his injuries don’t help either

[@mollymelena6104]

I would argue that his tennis deteriorated so he resorted to antics to remain relevant.

[@stkmedia5293]

seeing Paire's strong conviction throughout the match that he could win no matter what the score was made this match a thing of beauty

[@ralfydox]

Quel plaisir de voir Benoît Paire jouer à ce niveau là, de le voir se battre et ne pas abandonner même mener 2 sets à rien. Il n'a rien lâché et a finalement gagné ce match... Dommage qu'il ait changé de mentalité ces dernières années car il aurait pu être tellement fort !!! Aujourd'hui il abandonne les matchs des qu'il est un peu mené ou des qu'il y a quelque chose qui ne lui plais pas... 😕

That's why the mens tennis is way better. So much more entertaining! If this was the women's, Paire would have lost the match in two sets. It would have been so boring. But instead it turned into a proper battle!

[@jonm2522]

Always say it a shame Nick couldn't get his head in the right place, he could have bee the best Aussie tennis player since Hewitt, Rafter, Cash, probably better than all of them, but bad management and bad mental state, ruined his chances.

Je n’ai jamais vu un tel talent chez un français : Benoît Paire possède toutes les facettes du tennis !

[@gilveber2929]

il me rappelle Henri Leconte. capable de coups qu aucun joueur ne peut faire, mais des fautes ensuite. Les plus grands joueurs ont une qualite qui fait la difference : le mental . Benoit Paire a autant de talent qu un Federer, Nadal etc, mais il n a pas la constance, la regularite pour etre numero un mondial. Ce n est pas une critique car j adore ce joueur, et c est un grand. Mais c est juste une realite froide , pour etre Federer, Borg, Connors, Mcenroe, Sampras, Nadal etc .... il faut un mental surhumain. Un joueur comme Benoit Paire n a rien a envier aux meilleurs, mais il n a pas le mental , comme Leconte, pour avoir la regularite necessaire qui font gagner des tournois

[@gilveber2929]

il a 34 ans ca fait chi.... j esperais qu il soit plus jeune . Mais il restera comme un joueur francais fabuleux

[@MichaelScott261]

Kyrgios had a better backhand back then than he does now.

[@jonas8993]

The technique changed but it's very effective actually. Last year when he did amazing, I don't remember anybody really able to exposing his backhand, it's compact and consistent.

[@MichaelScott261]

@jonas8993 But he doesn't always strike through it. He only does it sometimes. Still quite a lot, he seems to push it. Maybe it's a mental thing.

[@philippboetcher9959]

That's what I thought! Paire seemed to play a lot stronger then now though....

[@jonas8993]

@@MichaelScott261 no indeed but striking through it isn't always necessary. It's usually a good thing to generate power but if a player with perfect timing like Kyrgios is super consistent with a compact backhand he shouldn't change it. What works for most people doesn't work for everybody, look at Daniil.

[@MichaelScott261]

@jonas8993 Danil does follow through on the backhand. It's a heavy ball. Kyrgios, a lot of the time, pushes it (Consistently, but not a match winning shot).
