Nick Kyrgios takes next step with reality TV star
Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios has decided to embrace his 'bad boy' label in his new life without social media influencer Costeen Hatzi.
The relationship between Hatzi and Kyrgios broke down at the end of March, closing the curtain on a romance that started in 2021.
Now Kyrgios is moving on, however, and is set to feature in a new show with reality TV star Sophie Stonehouse (of Too Hot To Handle fame).
The show is called Smash City and is based around a pickleball competition ... but there is an adult-theme twist and it is being hyped as 'spicy entertainment'.
It will be a four-part series with eight OnlyFans celebrities involved, playing various pickleball games (that will be 'silly and suggestive') for $20,000.

The eight OnlyFans creators involved are reality show contestants Nathan Webb and Joey Joy (also Too Hot to Handle), sports stars Adi Spiegelman (a former professional tennis player and model) and Sachia Vickery (US tennis player), and models Nellie Cronen, Kayla Fitzgerald, Trippie Bri, and Steph Mi.
The show has a launch date of June 13.
Meanwhile, questions are being asked about the company Kyrgios has recently been keeping.
Just yesterday, Kyrgios made headlines after featuring in a photo with rapper Ay Huncho.
The photo was taken at the Frucition nightclub in Canberra earlier this month, and it sparked headlines because Ay Huncho is allegedly a member of an underworld clan in Sydney.
'Keep waiting on it @ayhuncho,' Kyrgios captioned the photo, which Ay Huncho re-shared.
Ay Huncho real name is Ali Younes.
Younes is out on $1.8 million bail as he faces kidnapping and assault charges and was also involved in a fight at Parklea Correctional Centre in June last year.
In the property game, Kyrgios is hoping to fetch close to $2m for the three-bedroom, two-bathroom rooftop unit with access to a pool in Kensington, which he bought for $1.6m in 2022.
The asking price for the unit he used as his Sydney base is $1.8m.
The woman he had been spending his time there with in the Harbour city, Hatzi, said she had moved on from the troubled sports star.
'I'm loving my work and doing content every day,' she told The Herald Sun.
'We haven't spoken. Relationships come to an end. I believe it's for the best.
'I hope he finds peace and happiness within himself.'
On the court, Kyrgios is set to play in the French Open for the first time in eight years in the doubles draw with Jordan Thompson.
He is not expected to head to Roland Garros until later this month, having last played there in a second-round loss in 2017.

Son's intuition reveals Australian Olympic gold medallist Torah Bright's pregnancy
Australian Winter Olympic gold medallist Torah Bright has announced she is pregnant with her third child. The 38-year-old former snowboarder has two sons with husband Angus Thomson — and she says it was their eldest who first revealed the latest addition. Bright said they are 'so excited' to become a family of five. 'The boys are hyped and so sweet with their baby growing in my belly!' she wrote. On Wednesday, Bright said they are not learning the gender until the baby arrives. 'But I'm feeling a third boy,' she said. The dual Olympic halfpipe medallist also shared that son Flow 'knew I was pregnant before I actually was'. 'A whole month before I conceived, he was telling people I had a baby in my belly,' Bright wrote. 'Maybe he already knows who this little soul is.' Bright said younger son Halo has also connected with the baby. 'Every night, Halo falls asleep holding my belly — and every morning, he wakes up and kisses it,' she said. 'Our hearts are expanding, and so is our family. So deeply grateful for this growing love. #PregnancyMagic #IntuitiveKids.' Bright made headlines in 2021 when she uploaded a photo of her breastfeeding baby Flow while performing a handstand to celebrate her first Mother's Day. 'Becoming a mother has unleashed something inside of me,' she wrote in the caption. 'It's deeply spiritual. It's primal. It's raw. it's fierce. It is pure.' The post immediately went viral, prompting Bright to address the negative reaction in a video. She said it was 'just a little bit of pure fun' and 'celebrating the bond between mother and child'. She also said she could 'understand how it's not everyone's taste' but lamented the judgement. 'Mothers, we need to encourage each other,' she said in the Instagram video. 'We need to lift each other up. We need to pay each other compliments. 'We need to support each other. We need to be each other's biggest cheerleaders because motherhood is so beautiful, but the reality is we are the only ones who know just how hard those hard moments are. 'And we need to have each other's back. Not compare each other and judge each other, because we all do think so differently. That's why it's so beautiful.' She finished the video by asking: 'But did anyone really think that's how I breastfed?'

Swiatek and Sabalenka to meet for place in Paris final
Four-time champion Iga Swiatek's 26th successive win at Roland Garros set up a semi-final against top-ranked Aryna Sabalenka in what will be their first French Open meeting. Swiatek defeated Elina Svitolina 6-1 7-5 on Tuesday to extend her outstanding run. The consecutive wins record on the Parisian red clay is Chris Evert's 29. Sabalenka beat Olympic champion Zheng Qinwen in straight sets to reach the Paris semi-finals for the second time. Having been searching for her best form in recent months, Swiatek, who also struggled in the previous round, was in total control in the opening set. She was made to work harder by her 13th-seeded Ukrainian rival in the second , dropping her serve in the fourth game after hitting two straight unforced errors into the net. But Swiatek broke back immediately and took advantage of a poor service game by Svitolina – watched by her husband, French tennis player Gael Monfils – to break again with a thunderous forehand return and move 6-5 ahead. Swiatek sealed the win with a final ace. Swiatek has won five of the six matches she's played on clay against Sabalenka, including a thrilling three-setter in Spain last year. "The Madrid final against her is one of the best and most exciting finals that I have played," said Swiatek, who has not won a title or reached a final since her victory at Roland Garros last year. "It is always a challenge against Aryna.". Sabalenka is trying to reach her sixth grand slam final, and first at Roland Garros. "I'm super excited to go out there and to fight and to do everything I need to get the win," Sabalenka said. Sabalenka overcame a shaky start and windy conditions to prevail against Zheng 7-6 (7-3) 6-3 and extend her record against the Chinese to 7-1. The score did not fully reflect the closeness of the match but Sabalenka demonstrated why she is No.1 seed, making the difference on big points, while Zheng struggled with her serve in tense moments." Sabalenka had lost her most recent match against Zheng last month in Rome, having dominated their first six encounters. She said that loss was actually a good thing in the middle of an already exhausting season. "I was actually glad I lost that match, because I needed a little break before Roland Garros," Sabalenka said. "Today, I was just more fresh. I was ready to battle, I was ready to leave everything I had on court to get this win." Sabalenka, a three-time grand slam champion, has yet to drop a set in Paris.

Musetti survives disqualification row to reach semis
Italy's Lorenzo Musetti reached his first semi-final at the French Open, and second at a grand slam, by beating Frances Tiafoe 6-2 4-6 7-5 6-2. The 23-year-old will face defending champion Carlos Alcaraz for a place in Sunday's final after the Spaniard beat Tommy Paul 6-0 6-1 6-4. The No.8 seed was lucky not to be disqualified after kicking a ball at a line judge, however. In the second set against Tiafoe, Musetti kicked the ball in frustration and it hit the female line judge, standing about three metres away, in the chest. Tiafoe looked stunned at the other end of the court and gestured towards the umpire, who eventually gave Musetti a code violation. There were echoes of Novak Djokovic being defaulted at the 2020 US Open after accidentally hitting a female line judge with a ball. Later, Tiafoe said: "I mean, obviously he did that and nothing happened. I think that's comical, but it is what it is. "Nothing happened, so there's nothing really to talk about. Obviously it's not consistent, so it is what it is." Musetti did not let the incident affect him as he moved to victory in four sets. He is now 13-4 in his French Open career, and three of those losses came against an opponent ranked No.1 — Novak Djokovic twice, Alcaraz once. The only way he'll need to deal with the top-ranked man again in Paris is if it's his pal Jannik Sinner standing across the net on Sunday with the trophy in the offing. Musetti is one of the rare top players using the single-handed backhand, a vintage shot often praised by tennis connoisseurs. "We are Italian, we are elegant," he joked afterwards. Musetti will meet Alcaraz, who steamrollered American No.12 seed Paul for the loss of five games in another one-sided night match. Paul's right thigh was heavily strapped and he was unable to produce his best tennis. "I'm sorry you wanted to watch more tennis. I had to do my work," Alcaraz told the Court Philippe-Chatrier crowd.
