Kyrgios produces incredible hot dog winner – a day after brilliant underarm ace

NICK KYRGIOS produced a mustard hot dog – the day after delivering an under-arm service ace with just as much relish.

The controversial Australian stepped up an astonishing rally against Borna Coric in the Miami Open today with a no-look volley – before sprinting back to finish it with an outrageous, between-the legs winner.

The 23-year-old has never quite turned his huge natural ability into achievement, having been more hot-head pariah than hot-dog messiah.

And again this week he has drawn a mixed response, wowing the crowd today during his three-set defeat but winding up many when beating Dusan Lajovic.

He rowed with one spectator, who was eventually removed from the audience at the Hard Rock Stadium.

And he dollied over two under-arm serves, winning the point both times.

Lajovic looked particularly unimpressed when Kyrgios aced him with a low under-armer that bounced twice before it reached the Serbian.

Kyrgios went on to easily beat the 28-year-old 6-3 6-1.

And during his warm-up against Croatia’s world No13 Coric today Kyrgios aped Roger Federer’s serves.

That itself was a repeat of his actions against the Swiss legend himself when Federer crushed him 6-4 6-1 7-5 at the US Open last September.

Certainly, though, Kyrgios was in dynamic form early on in his last-16 match against 22-year-old Coric.

He conjured a cross-court “tweener hailed by a commentator as “one of the best hot dogs you will ever see”.

One fan tweeted: “Shot of the year.”

Others rated it “insane” and “absolutely unbelievable”.

And the hot dog certainly helped spiced the match up as Coric recovered from losing the opening set 6-4 to take the last two 6-3 6-2.
