Nick Kyrgios has been in the headlines for many on-court and off-court reasons since Wimbledon started on June 20.
Kyrgios defeated the unseeded Cristian Garin in three sets to advance to the semifinals a day after the Australian police said that Kyrgios is due in court next month on a charge that he allegedly assaulted a former girlfriend in December 2021.

An attorney representing Kyrgios called the allegation "serious." If convicted, Kyrgios could face up to two years in prison.
Despite so much going on off the court for Kyrgios, the 40th-ranked player has played good tennis and is making his first-ever Grand Slam semifinal. Kyrgios’ dominant serve is frequently hitting over 130 mph, and he had 17 aces against Garin while only getting broken once. Kyrgios is now 12-2 on grass courts in 2022.

Kyrgios has a powerful forehand to go along with the fire that he plays with on the court. Kyrgios himself wasn’t sure if he would ever reach a day like this in his career.
"Obviously, I didn’t go about things great early in my career and may have wasted that little window. But just really proud of the way I’ve come back out here," the 27-year-old Australian said.
