Nick Kyrgios recently slammed social media trolls for offering advice with zero credibility through a cryptic message. The former world No. 13 called out individuals who give advice on topics they don't understand.

Kyrgios, known for his fiery, charismatic, and unpredictable personality, criticized today's culture in an Instagram story on Wednesday. He criticized individuals who gain social media fame without genuine expertise, yet feel qualified to "educate" others on topics they hardly understand.

“Generation is cooked - people achieving and getting elite at nothing and feel like they have a platform to educate people because they have a social media account. and to make it better it's about things they have no idea about and zero credibility haha,” Kyrgios wrote.

Kyrgios has played only one match on the ATP tour in the past two years due to knee and wrist injuries, for which he underwent surgery. During his hiatus, he has expanded his media presence, working as a commentator for BBC and ESPN. He has also launched his own video podcast, "Good Trouble with Nick Kyrgios," featuring high-profile guests like Naomi Osaka, Mike Tyson, and Gordon Ramsay.

In a recent appearance on The Louis Theroux Podcast, Nick Kyrgios was asked whether it is the lifestyle of tennis players that is lonely or the sport itself. In response, he mentioned that both the lifestyle and the sport can be lonely. He described the challenges faced by players who spend months on the road, constantly adapting to new time zones, diets, and unpredictable match durations that can vary wildly from 1.5 to 5.5 hours.

“I mean, really, there's so many outlying things in tennis that are so like alien. If you told another athlete, like they wouldn't understand it. Like we're on the road for if you play a full schedule, someone from Australia, I'm on the road for eight to nine months a year, every week, different hotel and you don't know whether you're going to, you don't know what time you're going to play indefinitely,” he said.
“You are adapting to different time zones, different diet. You can either play for an hour and a half for the Grand Slam, you can play for 5 1/2 hours. What what others, what other sport doesn't know how long they're going to play for? It's insanity,” he added. (20:04)

Kyrgios has been taking fans through his recovery journey, often sharing videos and pictures from his time in the gym. He recently participated in a mixed doubles exhibition match at the US Open.
