Even celebrities weren’t left behind:

Kyrgios has also hit back. The 27-year-old claimed he was “the pariah” of his countrymen. It comes after Kyrgios was accused of “cheating, manipulation, and abuse” during this year’s championships by former Wimbledon champion Pat Cash.
“As for the greats of Australian tennis, they haven’t always been the nicest to me personally. They haven’t always been supportive. They haven’t been supportive these two weeks. So it’s hard for me to kind of read things that they say about me,” Kyrgios spoke at a press conference.
