The Greek-Australian tennis player protested strongly to the umpire to remove her from the court as she was distracting him from the game. Yes, as he said he looks like he’s had… 700 drinks: “There is no greater moment for me and he did it again, almost costing me the point. She’s drunk and out of her mind, kick her out. I know exactly who she is, the one who looks like she’s had 700 drinks.”
As the British tabloids revealed today, the “drunk” fan who irritated Kyrgios is 32-year-old Pole, Ania Palus, a lawyer specializing in medical matters. She explained that she just wanted to support him while he had…only had two drinks: “I hadn’t had 700 drinks, I had had two. For me it’s the temperature, I didn’t have a hat, maybe I overdid it, but I only had good intentions. I am really sorry. He always says the world is against him, I wanted to support him.”
The incident resulted in the woman being taken off the court for about 15 minutes before she was allowed back in to watch the rest of the final.
