Though controversial Kyrgios has also raked up a RECORD number of fines for a tennis player.
Kyrgios astonishingly revealed that he has almost been fined 800 Australian dollars (£452,000) during his tennis career.
And that puts him ahead of all his peers as the most-fined player in the history of the sport.
He said: “All the fines that I get fined go to charity. That’s for everyone.
“So every time we get fined, they’re like, ‘it’s going to charity.’ I was like ‘I don’t know why you would say that.’
“I would probably have in my entire career – man, I have been hit with some big ones.
“But I don’t think all the time it has been fair, to be honest. But I would say I’d be approaching 800 grand I reckon.”
