Nick Kyrgios acknowledged that Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are “the best in the world” but also highlighted that he always believes in himself and that he would enter those matchups confident he could win.
While the Australian was sidelined due to knee and wrist surgeries, the Italian and the Spaniard elevated their games to a completely new level and combined for all four Grand Slams this year.
After missing the last two season, Kyrgios is finally back to being fully healthy and his comeback starts in a week at the Brisbane International.
For what will likely be the last chapter of his career, the 29-year-old wants to win a Grand Slam in singles. For him to do so, he would likely need to beat a couple of top players during a Slam tournament.
“There’s no doubt that Sinner, Alcaraz — these guys are the best in the world right now, hands down. But that doesn’t mean I won’t believe in myself. I’ll always back myself and do everything I can to compete,” the 2022 Wimbledon finalist told Telecom Asia Sport.
