During a tennis match (2022 BNP Paribas Open) on March 17, 2022, Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios
dragged the actor Ben Stiller into a row with a spectator during his stormy
defeat to Rafael Nadal at Indian Wells, California.
Nick Kyrgios
started with a bang but then exploded in all the wrong ways as he went down to
Rafael Nadal in a tense grudge match. Nick Kyrgios’ furious temper tantrums
featured heavily in a dramatic loss to Rafael Nadal when they met in the
quarter-finals at Indian Wells. Nadal won the wild showdown 7-6 5-7 6-4 but
some angry outbursts provided as much entertainment as the actual tennis.
Ben Stiller with his wife Christine Taylor were sitting in the
front row behind the baseline when someone in the crowd ticked Kyrgios off,
perhaps suggesting where he should serve or what he should try to disrupt
Nadal. When Kyrgios asked: "Are you playing? Are you good at tennis?", the
heckler replied "no". Then the tennis player drew on a real-life example and
used Stiller to make his point: "Exactly, so don’t tell me how to play. Do I
tell him how to act?" Kyrgios said as he pointed at Ben Stiller.
