Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios has made a surprising move by joining OnlyFans, stating that it’s a step to disrupt the traditional ways sports stars share content.
The 28-year-old, who secured his first Grand Slam title in men’s doubles at the Australian Open last year, expressed enthusiasm about being part of the platform’s social media revolution. According to a press release, Kyrgios aims to reveal various facets of his personality through the channel.
The tennis player highlighted the evolving landscape, stating that athletes must engage online beyond their performances on the court or field.
Kyrgios looks forward to creating, producing, directing, and owning content on OnlyFans, emphasizing that the platform represents the future. He teased content involving tennis balls, along with gaming, tattoos, and his intimate side.
OnlyFans CEO Kelly Blair welcomed Kyrgios as a disruptor and expressed anticipation for what he will share with his fans on the platform. Kyrgios gained popularity not only for his on-court antics but also as a featured personality in Netflix’s tennis docuseries Break Point.
However, his tennis career faced challenges in 2023 due to a knee injury that led to his withdrawal from the Australian Open, followed by surgery and a year-long absence from playing.
