Boris Becker: Crazy Twitter dispute with tennis bully Nick Kyrgios - "Bigger idiot than I thought"

Alexander Zverev allowed himself a mega misstep. Then a crazy argument broke out on Twitter between Boris Becker and tennis bully Nick Kyrgios.

• The German tennis professional Alexander "Sascha" Zverev is currently under powerful criticism.
• The trigger is a video that proves the violation of the Corona requirements and Zverev's isolation.
• Boris Becker and Nick Kygrios then had a heated argument on Twitter.

Update from June 30th: Alexander Zverev's party video continues to make waves. After initially estimated on Monday Nick Kygrios expressed more critical of the behavior of Zverez, has now tennis legend Boris Becker via Twitter asked for the floor and the Australian Tennis bully pre-buttoned. 

“We all live in a pandemic called COVID-19, ” wrote the former Wimbledon champion to Kyrgios : “This is terrible and has claimed too many lives. We should protect our families and loved ones and follow the Corona guidelines, but I just don't like rats! "

We all live in the pandemic called # Covid_19! It's terrible and it killed to many lives ... we should protect our families / loved ones and follow the guidelines but still don't like #rats @NickKyrgios @farfetch

The Australian's counterattack was of course not long in coming: " Boris Becker is a bigger fool than I thought," wrote Kyrgios , who doesn't have the best reputation on the ATP tour due to his freaking out. "For God's sake, Boris, I'm not competing here and I'm not trying to scapegoat anyone," replied the 25-year-old. “It's a global pandemic, and if someone is as idiotic as Alex for doing what he did, I criticize him for it. Quite simple. ”Kyrgios also joked that the volley was obviously not Becker's sharpest tool.

@TheBorisBecker is a bigger donut than I thought. 😂😂 Can hit a volley, obviously not the sharpest tool in the shed though.

Of course , Becker couldn't let that sit on him and shot back at Kyrgios : “You're a funny guy! How is it down under? Are you all following the guidelines? ”The Australian replied,“ Haha, all right, Bro! Don't pretend you're my friend just because you've calmed down. "

Becker then shifted the discussion to the sporting side: "I would really like to see Nick Kyrgios exhaust his potential and win a Grand Slam ," said Becker: "He would be an incredible role model for the world's young people who are concerned with equality / Race / Heritage deals! Be a man, my friend and do your job! "

I really would like to se @NickKyrgios fulfill his potential and win a grandslam! He would be an incredible role model for for the youth of the world addressing the issues of equality / race / heritage! Man up buddy and deliver! @atptour @ITF_Tennis

Kyrgios reacted to that too, of course. “Why are we talking about tennis now? It has nothing to do with tennis? ", He asked rhetorically:" How about if the guy you are defending pulls himself together and gives us an explanation? And no other average management apology. "

Why are you now talking about tennis? It has nothing to do with tennis? How about the dude who you are defending mans up and gives us some sort of explanation? Not another average management apology.

Sequel follows. Certainly ...

Curiously, the tennis star's misstep would not have been made public if fashion designer Philipp Plein had left his cell phone in his pocket. But the designer, who recently made a bizarre appearance at GNTM, put a video in his Instagram story * that Zverev *  showed during the exuberant partying .

"I deeply apologize to anyone that I have put at risk ... I will proceed to follow self-isolating guidelines ... stay safe 🙏."

Zverev: Nick Kyrgios sharply criticizes Zverev - "This tennis world pisses me off"

A tennis player who is known for his emotionality has now also responded to the scandal surrounding the German star player in an Instagram story *. "I see a lot of controversial things, but one thing that struck me was Sascha Zverev - again, again, again ...", the Australian Nick Kyrgios begins his angry speech.

“ How selfish can you be? How selfish can you be? If you have the audacity to post a tweet your management penned on their behalf, publicly apologizing and saying you're going to be staying home for 14 days, then fucking stay home too . Stay at home with your girlfriend * for 14 days! It pisses me off, this tennis world pisses me off. "

Here's the @NickKyrgios response so many of y'all were clamoring for. I think he delivered.

But to me the silence of the other 100+ ATP players is far louder and more telling. pic.twitter.com/guj2JjRZuS

It is not known whether the sharp and usual honest criticism from Kyrgios reached the 23-year-old. Neither Zverev nor his management have so far responded to the incident or the response video.

Meanwhile, an apparent sports scandal has been exposed in England . Athletes got an energy drink from the federation at the limit of doping . There were severe side effects.

While Boris Becker is on vacation with his new girlfriend Lilian in Ibiza, his ex-wife Lilly gets upset at home.

Boris Becker also has to listen to violent announcements on Instagram. In a photo with Björn Borg, the German tennis icon made a faux pas and the network reacted with a shit storm.
