We’ve seen this before from Nick Kyrgios.
The tantrums, the losing his cool mid-match, the breaking of rackets and so on.

He reached into his bag and smashed a pair of rackets, which was caught on video from the stands.
I get that he’s not happy about losing when he was so close to competing for a Grand Slam title. But this isn’t great.
Here’s what happened right after the match ended:
