is it the point of the year already?

Nick Kyrgios and Novak Djokovic are eliminated in doubles in the second round of the ATP 250 in Brisbane by the pair of Nikola Mektic and Michael Venus. It ends 6-2 3-6 10-8, with an exchange that is already among the candidates for the point of the year: the two specialists win at the end of an infinite series of shots, including two tweeners in a row from the Australian. For Kyrgios, returning after a year and a half and very critical of the management of Sinner’s doping case, it is the second defeat in two days after the one he suffered in singles against Mpetshi Perricard.
