Australia's Kyrgios beats Zverev in China Open
Nick Kyrgios of Australia returns a shot against Mischa Zverev of German
Abu Dhabi - Emirates Voice
Nick Kyrgios lost the first set and demolished a racquet before beating Germany's Mischa Zverev 3-6, 6-2, 6-2 in the second round of the China Open on Wednesday.
The enigmatic Australian, seeded eighth on Beijing's outdoor hard courts, smashed his racquet on the floor in anger, bending the head in half, when he conceded the opening set.
That earned the world number 19 a warning from the umpire.
But the 22-year-old Kyrgios returned for the second set with renewed determination and errors began creeping into Zverev's game.
Zverev, ranked 27 in the world and the older brother of rising star Alexander, surrendered his first service game of the second set and Kyrgios was never in trouble after that.
During one changeover the Australian appeared so relaxed that he sat back on his chair, arms behind his head, and sang along with a pop hit being played over the stadium loudspeakers.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations.
