Nick wins at Acapulco!

Elsewhere, World No. 64 Nick Kyrgios won his first ATP title in 14 months and the 5th of his career by defeating World No. 3 Alexander Zverev in the final of the Acapulco International in Mexico on Sunday.

Kyrgios was on the brink of exiting the competition in his match against Rafael Nadal when he was three match points down, but he saved them all to advance. It's been an exhausting week for the Australian, having played back-to-back-to-back exhilarating, three-set matches against Nadal, Wawrinka and John Isner, prior to the final.

This victory reaffirms that he is truly is one of the most talented players on the ATP circuit.

With Indian Wells starting in a week, it will be interesting to see if Federer and Kyrgios can maintain such a high level of tennis, with the entry of World No.1 Novak Djokovic to the fold.
