Wimbledon: Nick Kyrgios fights back to beat Stefanos Tsitsipas in heated third-round match

Nick Kyrgios fought back to knock out Greek fourth seed Stefanos Tsitsipas and reach the Wimbledon fourth round in a dramatic four-set encounter in which both players were given warnings by the umpire.

In a remarkable incident-packed match, Kyrgios called for Tsitsipas to be defaulted after the 23-year-old hit a ball into the crowd and narrowly missed a spectator when he lost the second set.

The Australian had already received a warning for an obscenity by then, while Tsitsipas was given a point penalty for a second code violation as he sent a ball away in frustration.
