Although the Australian beat France’s Benjamin Bonzi’s in four sets, he showed some frustration on the court during the match. He used a profanity towards someone in the audience at one point. Later in the match, Kyrgios yelled at someone in his player’s box, telling the person to be more supportive or leave.

During the second set, Kyrgios argued with the chair umpire, Jaume Campistol, complaining that he could smell marijuana smoke in the stadium, even dropping an explicative picked up by the broadcast. It was not confirmed whether a fan was smoking marijuana at the match or not.
