Nick Kyrgios’ hilarious reaction to Novak Djokovic’s new hobby has gone viral on the internet
Capoeira is an Afro-Brazilian martial arts form that includes dance, music, and acrobatics, and is known for instilling discipline, self-defense, and physical fitness. Novak Djokovic posted a video clip on Instagram of him performing the Capoeira and Kyrgios’ reaction to it has certainly got the fans laughing. In the last two weeks, the 35-year-old has shared three videos of himself engrossed in Capoeira training.
After watching Djokovic attempt inverted kicks with his hands on the floor and a few other moves in the video, Kyrgios could not resist commenting on his Instagram post. The Australian joked about being in trouble if Capoeira was required to win a Grand Slam. “If you’re telling me this is what it takes to win a slam, then I’m in trouble,” Kyrgios wrote.
Novak Djokovic and Nick Kyrgios’ bromance is the new talking point of the tennis World
As it turns out, turns out the ‘official bromance’ between Nick Kyrgios and Novak Djokovic was indeed official and not just a one-time show. The two players, who have repeatedly engaged in a war of words in the past, mended differences ever since the Australian openly supported the World No. 6 during his deportation from Down Under earlier this year.
After Rafael Nadal had to withdraw from Wimbledon 2022 due to an injury a day before he was supposed to face Kyrgios in the semifinals, the 27-year-old received a walkover and reached a Grand Slam final for the first time in his career. He was joined by the Serbian star who was aiming for his 21st Major and achieved it by beating Kyrgios 4-6, 6-3, 6-4, 7-6.
There were multiple friendly exchanges between the finalists before and after the match, when Djokovic declared their relationship an ‘official bromance’.
