Controversial Aussie tennis star Nick Kyrgios has been sighted kicking back at a local watering hole ahead of a Wimbledon grudge match.

According to heraldsun.com.au:

“Nick Kyrgios has taken his relaxed approach to preparation to all new heights, hitting a well-known Wimbledon pub just hours before he is due to take on Rafael Nadal.

“Kyrgios was spotted at the Dog and Fox on the third night of the championships, staying out past 11pm and enjoying drinks with friends.

“The 24-year-old’s match with Nadal is shaping up as one of the most anticipated of the tournament, with the two camps engaging in a war of words throughout the season.”
