Nick Kyrgios has defended the existence of exhibition events after former player Noah Rubin claimed they served no purpose other than to dilute the game.
Rubin, who switched from tennis to pickleball a few months ago, joked that there are exhibition events going on right now without understanding the purpose. Kyrgios objected to this and fired back at Rubin saying he would play them as well if he received the money.
The American agreed to that point but said they were just watering down the tennis and there weren’t many fans watching them, to which Kyrgiso replied:
“These exos have the biggest stars in the world. Kind of like an ALL-STAR game. I would have to suggest that those 250 week after week might impact the dilution of the game, I would say around the world event with players like Novak [Djokovic] and I’m not killing the game.”
Kyrgios and Rubin finally agreed that something should ideally change:
