MELBOURNE - World number one Rafa Nadal renews his rivalry with Nick Kyrgios in a blockbuster fourth-round clash at the Australian Open on Monday, as the Spaniard prepares for the trickiest test of his Melbourne campaign.
In Kyrgios, however, he faces an opponent who has won two of their three previous matches on hardcourts. After edging past Russia’s Karen Khachanov in five sets to set up an eighth meeting with Nadal, he also had kind words for the 19-times Grand Slam champion. Kyrgios had come under further scrutiny for mocking Nadal’s pre-serve routine in his second-round match against Gilles Simon following a time violation, but the 24-year-old said he only had respect for the Spaniard.
