Tennis star Nick Kyrgios criticizes Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison for 'slow' wildfires response
Tennis star Nick Kyrgios has said Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison was "far too slow" reacting to the wildfires devastating large parts of the country and has described addressing the climate crisis as an "urgent" matter.
A leading voice in his sport's drive to help raise money for relief efforts, Kyrgios last week pledged to donate $140 ($200 AUSD) for every ace he hits at upcoming tournaments -- a deed which has sparked similar gestures from fellow players and tournament organizers in the country.
Writing in AthletesVoice, the world No. 29 said: "As the leader of our country, I don't think Scott Morrison has done enough to be honest.
"At the very least, he was far too slow to act, while people were losing their lives and families were losing their homes. There is nothing worse than that.
"Right now, nothing is more important than helping these people and putting the fires out. So, if I could say anything to our politicians it's imagine you're in the same position as these people who have been impacted."
