MORE TENNIS THAN YOU'LL EVER NEED

Ready, play – where are my *$%& shoes?

Classic moment in Cincinnati Tuesday when Nick Kyrgios, who wears his basketball high tops constantly – realized his big tennis bag was missing something major.

His tennis shoes.

Kyrgios wandered around in his socks until a team member went back to the locker room to fetch them. 

Everyone had a good laugh.

Kyrgios, whose knee was extra-taped, saved a match point before defeating Denis Kudla 11-9 in the third-set tiebreak to advance to the second round.

He dropped 39 aces on Kudla, who had 20 of his own as three extended sets were completed in under two hours.
