Nick Kyrgios Brings Hollywood Actor Ben Stiller Into Fan Argument, It's Incredible

How can you not love Nick Kyrgios?!

The Aussie may have lost his quarter-final clash at Indian Wells, although he did conjure up a brilliant moment away from the action which hilariously involved Hollywood megastar Ben Stiller.

It was recently-crowned Australian Open champion Rafael Nadal who got the better of his age-old rival, keeping his 2022 unbeaten streak alive to advance into the next stages of the prestigious tournament.

But there was a moment in the middle of the match which seems to have got people talking.

During one of Kyrgios' serves, a heckler appeared to shout something in his direction.

Clearly hearing what was said, Kyrgios bit back, saying: "Are you playing? Are you good at tennis? Exactly, why are you speaking?"

He then pointed to legendary actor Ben Stiller, who was sitting in the front row of the crowd.

"Do I tell him how to act? No," Kyrgios joked.

The genius comment received a giggle from those inside the arena - including Stiller himself, who was caught smiling as the camera panned out to him.

It wasn't the only time during the match that Kyrgios exchanged pleasantries with the crowd.

The Australian fan favourite ended up losing the first set to Nadal because of a point penalty he received for telling the fans, well, be quiet.

With Nadal on the brink of clinching the opener, the crowd continued to cheer long into Kyrgios' service.

"Shut the f**k up," he shouted.

The umpire wasted no time in punishing him with a point penalty, thus handing Nadal the opening set.
