Nick Kyrgios is one of the most interesting personalities on the tennis scene. The United Cup will be a chance for many to play mixed doubles. Kyrgios reflected on that. He thinks it will be a great thing. "I don't play so much mixed doubles anymore but what I love about mixed doubles is, it's for the fans.
That's the most important thing," Kyrgios said, as quoted by eurosport.com.
"Seeing some of the best females in the world playing with the best males, it definitely provides some really good entertainment, how the male kind of lets the female do her thing on the court and not get in the way.
That's fun to watch."

Kyrgios believes that such things are missing in tennis.
This will be an ideal thing for fans, who look forward to watching such matches. "It's just a great event to have, an event where females and males come together as one to represent their nation," he added.
"That's extremely important.
And for the fans. To have all the best athletes from around the world together, I think it's a very special event.
We don't have very many events during the year where both males and females are in the same spot playing the one event together competing for prize money, a top title and representing your country all in one." Kyrgios is happy that he will be able to play in his home country.
He is aware of the seriousness of his opponents, but he does not give up. "To be honest, I haven't really played well in Sydney but I'm hoping to change that narrative at the start of the year," Kyrgios continued.
"Just playing in Australia is special.
The tour is a long grind and it's rarely in Australia so I'm definitely not going to take it for granted."
