Watching him for the first time today. Absolute cockwomble of the highest order. Chuntering on all the time. What a weapon. Well said Orbs, we've got mates who are more polite

The ball was IN, but Kyrgios didn't ask them to check. He lost the point.
WEIRD RULES!
He won the game anyway, luckily ...

You wouldn't put it past either Nadal or (most likely) Djokovic to win the US Open and make it another year of the old guard hoovering up all the slams; despite Federer being out of action and Murray/Warwinka (the only other multiple-slam winners still active as far as I remember) both returning from injuries and being miles from their peak. It's truly insane. There are quite a few guys entering their peak late 20s years (or already past them) who would be multiple-slam winners themselves in another universe.
The dominance of the big 3 is something that will never be repeated IMO. As a Murray fan though it still makes me sad he didn't get to 5/6 which I think would've better reflected his level. Yes he won 2 olympic golds / WTF / 14 (fourteen) masters 1k (compared to Warinka's sole 1k) but most people will only focus on slams. There's still time of course but I wouldn't bet on it.

We're now basically on the second generation of players that have come through after these lot started and they're still dominating the Slams. I thought that would change when Medvedev won the US Open last year, but it hasn't. It really is incredible. I'm not sure whether the newer players should be embarrassed or not tbh, on the one hand they're up against the best to ever play the game, but on the other they're now in their late 30s.
