CNN
Nick Kyrgios continued his eventful run at Wimbledon with a 4-6 6-4 7-6 (7-2) 3-6 6-2 victory against Brandon Nakashima in the fourth round.
After a fiery match against Stefanos Tsitsipas on Saturday, during which Kyrgios called for his opponent to be defaulted for hitting a ball into the crowd, this was a more subdued performance from the Australian, who has equaled his best ever performance at Wimbledon by reaching the quarterfinals.
It was only when he put away a forehand volley on his first match point in the fifth set that Kyrgios showed real signs of emotion -- looking to the crowd and roaring in delight.
