Lawyer Jason Moffett, who is said to be representing Kyrgios, told the Canberra Times, which first reported the news, that he had been made aware of the matter, which was “in the context of a domestic relationship”. Moffett said his client is aware of the charge. CNN has reached out to Moffett for comment. “The nature of the allegation is serious and Mr Kyrgios takes the allegation very seriously,” Moffett told The Canberra Times. “As the matter is before the court … he has no comment at this stage, but in due course we will issue a media release,” Moffett added. Kyrgios, who is set to play Chile’s Cristian Garín on Wednesday at Wimbledon, reached his first Grand Slam quarter-final in seven years. CNN has reached out to Wimbledon for comment on whether these allegations will affect its participation in the tournament.
