'Good guy': Nick Kyrgios' kind Anzac Day gesture for complete strangers

Nick Kyrgios is known for his controversial on-court persona, but maybe being back in his hometown brings out the best in him.

The world number 35 showed his fiery on-court persona doesn’t define him, pulling over in Canberra to help push a broken down car home.

The story, which is gaining traction on Twitter, shows a softer side to Kyrgios.

According to Twitter user Simon Anderson, the Aussie star helped his girlfriend and another friend push another woman’s broken-down car home.

“Just got a call from my other half who was walking home from Old Canberra Inn, when she and a mate passed a woman who’s car had died. The woman asked them to help her push it home, which they did,” Anderson wrote.

As they were pushing, a car pulled up next to them and the driver asked if they needed a hand, which after a few beers, they did.

“Guy hops out the car to help, and is Nick Kyrgios.

“So my girlfriend, her mate, and Nick Kyrgios pushed this woman’s car home.

Despite being on the way home from training and then helping push a car down a Canberra street, he takes a pic with them then gets back in his car and goes home.”

There you have it; Nick Kyrgios, good guy.

Hopefully his good deed earns him some good karma on the tennis circuit.
