Nick Kyrgios found himself in a bit of a predicament at the Cincinnati Masters on Tuesday when he realized he forgot to pack his tennis shoes for his Round of 64 match against Denis Kudla.
Fortunately, Kyrgios was able to have someone retrieve the shoes for him and didn't have to play in the high-top basketball sneakers he arrived in.
The 23-year-old went on to defeat Kudla, 6-7 (2), 7-5, 7-6 (9).
