No End in Sight for Tennis World No. 1 Novak Djokovic and No.47 Nick Kyrgios Feud

Davis BrownThe beef between tennis world no.1 Novak Djokovic and number 47 Nick Kyrgios seems to go on and on.
Until recently, Novak has generally tried to avoid adding fuel to the tense relationship with Nick Kyrgios. That’s despite Nick’s repeated attempts to draw him into an online confrontation.
However, last Thursday, the world no.1 allowed himself a rare slip to throw a well-timed shade at Nick Kyrgios.
Djokovic showed how he really felt about Nick’s constant jabs when he liked an Instagram post where tennis legend John McEnroe was quoted saying in a BBC Radio interview that Kyrgios would have been a top-five player on the planet if only he were able to show up consistently – give his 100 percent – every time he steps onto the court.
“Is he good for the game? Yes, he’s good for the game,” McEnroe said during his interview with BBC Radio 5.
“Does he sell tickets? Yes. I can’t handle the fact that he only tries half the time. We can’t support that anymore. I don’t think he should be out there anymore unless he gives an honest effort – that’s my personal opinion.
“The guy would be top five in the world for sure if he was able to do it. He’s got incredible – this is my opinion – fear of failure. He doesn’t even allow himself to train hard enough to give himself a chance.”
“You saw what he is capable of,” he said. “He was driving Nadal crazy; it was the best second-round match, one of the best matches of the whole tournament. But when he plays guys, he’s supposed to beat; he doesn’t even show up.”
Djokovic’s reaction was the complete opposite of what his fans saw during the Wimbledon Championships– where he played down the beef with Kyrgios.
“Honestly, I think that deep down he is not such a bad guy,” Novak said. “I don’t know why Kyrgios says all these things, whether he is seeking attention or has some other motive.
He went on: “He obviously wants to be sincere and transparent. It’s the way he is; I respect that like I respect all other players on tour.”
Nick Kyrgios had in an earlier interview with NY Times tennis expert Ben Rothenberg on the No Challenges Remaining Podcast labeled the world no.1 as “cringe-worthy.”
“I just feel like he has a sick obsession with wanting to be liked,” said Kyrgios. “He just wants to be like Roger. For me personally – I don’t care right now, I’ve come this far – I feel like he just wants to be liked so much that I just can’t stand him.
“This whole celebration thing [the boob-throwing move] that he does after matches, it’s like so cringe-worthy. It’s very cringeworthy.”
Kyrgios went on to say, as far as he is concerned, Djokovic is not the greatest player ever. He has played Novak twice and won.
So, “Simply because, I’ve played him twice and like, I’m sorry, but if you can’t beat me, you’re not the greatest of all time. Because if you like look at my day-to-day routine and how much I train and how much I put in, it’s zero compared to him.”
As it stands, it doesn’t appear both parties will make peace anytime soon.
When it comes to the fields of Religion, International Law and International Relations, Davis Brown is seen as a renowned researcher. He has written a number of books like The Sword, the Cross, and the Eagle: The American Just War Tradition, published in 2008 by Rowman & Littlefield.

Disney had to shut the door on 2023’s Star Wars Celebration. But with that being out of the way, the forces have announced the next time they’ll be celebrating the franchise. So, in a galaxy far, far away, fans and celebrities from the franchise will come together and rejoice in the name of the force. The next Celebration will happen in 2025, sounds a bit too far, doesn’t it?
Star Wars Celebration In Japan
Celebration cinema movies and so much more await fans in Japan. What an interesting choice to hold the next Star Wars Celebration. What’s more fascinating is that Disney has completely overlooked the year 2024 as a potential candidate. But it’s not all that bewildering if you think it through. There are absolutely no Star Wars movies planned in the coming years. It would be ideal to take a short break for this very reason.
Japanese fans are always known for taking things one step further with their cosplays and conventions. This time, disney+ japan has brought everyone to Central Tokyo, home of one of Japan’s biggest convention centers.
Nicely placed in the Makuhari Messe district, this convention center will welcome thousands of fans from all over the world on the 18th of April 2025. The celebration will go on until the 20th of April.
Would it surprise you if we were to say the 2025 edition is not the first time Disney has picked Japan as its host? Back in 2008, Japan hosted another Star Wars Celebration. It’s outlandish but in the best way because usually, fans in the U.K. and the U.S. get to host the celebration. Imagine not having London hotels to stay in this time around. Perhaps this time, a cool little sleeping pod at a Japanese hotel can be fans’ mainstay.
Thanks to everyone’s favorite, COVID-19, the fan-gathering was called off in 2020. So the next time you get to go, know that it’s been five years since then. Hopefully, Pedro Pascal shows up and lightens up everyone’s mood at the convention.

The man gave us great hits like Long Time Gone, Turn! Turn! Turn!, and also Wooden Ships.
Did you know that Crosby may just be responsible for your favorite rock songs just as much as he was responsible for finding and fueling the whole genre of folk rock? He was one of the few members of the group who helped and introduced the intoxicating California Sound in music. To everyone’s shock and grief, Crosby died peacefully in his sleep. The culprit? COVID-19.
David Crosby Died of COVID-19

Firstly, Crosby’s contributions to rock made him an absolute legend, so a whole wave of artists is saddened. But also, we will never get any more new music from him.
The sentiment resonated with his former bandmate, Graham Nash. Nash broke the news telling the world that their favorite musician was still practicing for a show before he passed. He appeared on a podcast called Kyle Meredith With…
“He was rehearsing for a show to do in Los Angeles with a full band,” said Nash on the podcast. “After three days of rehearsals, he felt a little sick. And he’d already had COVID, and he had COVID again. And so he went home and decided that he would take a nap, and he never woke up. But he died in his bed, and that is fantastic,”
David Crosby’s Documentary
Nash also said how Crosby living up to being 80 was “astonishing.” With the current life expectancy levels paired up with Crosby’s liver issues. You may have expected the man to die a lot earlier, say about twenty years ago. At least, that’s what Nash thought. You may not have heard of a fantastic documentary made on our daytime legend. It rightfully chronicled all his struggles with life, health, and all things personal.
However, old fans may be familiar with a recent documentary titled remember my name. The documentary, directed by A.J. Eaton, showed our beloved rockstar in his rawest form. It talked about David Crosby’s regrets, fears, and so much more. The perfect watch for you if you’re a Crosby megafan.
His legend lives on for longer after Crosby last closed his eyes on the 18th of January, 2023. He also worked with The Lighthouse Band back in December 2022. The band included Michelle Willis, Becca Stevens, and Michael League. With them, Crosby released his own album, David Crosby & The Lighthouse Band: Live at the Capitol Theatre. You can also stream the album from platforms such as Spotify.
