Kyrgios Says No to Coach for Now
After his eye-opening run to the Tokyo title,
Nick Kyrgios
says he still has no plans to add a coach to his team. “No chance I'm having a coach any time soon,” Kyrgios said,
according to Linda Pearce of The Age
. “[I] just won a 500. Think I'm doing all right.”

Kyrgios is Insane
It’s hard to argue with Kyrgios’ assessment. He was absolutely brilliant in Tokyo, and he is clearly showing better form after pairing with fitness trainer
Martin Skinner
a few weeks ago. Skinner has previously trained Watford of the English Premier League, and he’s also trained tennis players Aljaz Bedene and Tara Moore.
Kyrgios took his loss at the U.S. Open hard, and vowed to start taking better care of himself physically.
“I think it's all down to my new strength and conditioner,” he said of his recent success. “He's been making me work pretty hard in the gym. I feel like I'm making massive gains off the court and it's obviously showed last week.”
Kyrgios said fitness was one of the rocks that he had not yet overturned in his young career. “To be honest, I wasn't really doing anything physical in the gym for the last year and a half,” he admitted.
But he says Skinner has helped him change his ways.
“He's been literally working every day for two-and-a-half weeks and I'm already noticing improvement, so I think that's what I have to do moving forward.”
