Your support makes all the difference.Nick Kyrgios has become the latest big name to sign up for the Fever-Tree Championships at Queen’s Club this summer.
The Australian produced one of the best weeks of his career in Acapulco last week, defeating Rafael Nadal, Stan Wawrinka and Alexander Zverev to win the title, and joins Kyle Edmund, Stefanos Tsitsipas and Marin Cilic on the entry list at Queen’s.
“I know what I can do if I’m feeling good, and I want to show that on the grass at Queen’s and Wimbledon this year,” Kyrgios said.
“The Fever-Tree Championships is a great event, one of my good mates Andy Murray won the title five times there, so that shows how important it is. The courts are perfect, they suit my game and if I go well there it will set me up perfectly for Wimbledon.”
Kyrgios defeated Murray and Edmund on his way to the semi-finals at Queen’s last summer, his best run at the tournament, which begins on June 17.
