Olympic Legend Launches A Shocking Racist Attack On Nick Kyrgios

Controversial Wimbledon star Nick Kyrgios has labelled Australian swimming great Dawn Fraser a “blatant racist” after she told the tennis prospect to “go back where their parents came from”.

The interview instantly drew criticism on social media, including from Kyrgios and his family, and were branded as racist.

Kyrgios, 20, has courted controversy throughout his short career, most recently during his four-set defeat in the fourth round of Wimbledon.

During the last 16 clash, after being handed a code violation by the umpire for the use of bad language, Kyrgios hit two service returns tamely into the net and allowed a Gasquet serve to pass him without making an attempt to play the ball back into court.

The furore around twenty-year-old Nick Kyrgios’ performance has been overshadowed this morning by racist remarks about him and another Australian player by swimming champion Dawn Fraser, and it’s all just very unpleasant and could something nice happen for ONCE, please.

“They should be setting a better example for the younger generation of this country, a great country of ours”, Fraser told the Nine Network.

She also stated that they “should go back to where their parents came from if they want”. But she will never know better, despite any current or future attempts to deny that these comments are in any way racist.

‘I can see it being interpreted that way… but it wasn’t intended that way. “Showing emotion, arrogant”, the player wrote. “Do you think they are?”

“We’ve had a fantastic pull with people overseas, I’ve made friends through my sport and kept them all my life and still talk to people I competed against”.

And it appears that after many years they still haven’t learnt their lesson with the way that they are dealing with Bernard Tomic, and to a lesser extent Nick Kyrgios. “This is not acceptable discourse in a multicultural country where we are all Australians”, he said. She who won the 100m freestyle at three successive Olympic Games from 1956 to 1964.

“It’s terrible. I took it pretty personally myself and what immediately came to mind was my parents obviously both came to Australia [from overseas], and their parents as well”, Christos said. Tomic is German-born with a Croatian father and Bosnian mother – the family migrated to Australia when he was three.

But Fraser at first strongly defended her comments.

Fraser later offered an apology for her comments, insisting they were made on a “purely sporting level, rather than meant as an attack on Nick’s ethnicity”.

Kyrgios describes himself as a “proud Australian tennis player with a strong Greek and Malaysian heritage” on his Facebook.

However, this country’s values and expectations have failed to take into account one key ingredient that is necessary for the short and long-term success of any nation in the modern world today, and that is multiculturalism.
