Canberra tennis star Nick Kyrgios has created a stir this morning after launching his own OnlyFans account.

The 28-year-old is one of the biggest names on tour and is known for his ability to generate headlines both on and off the court. Kygrios said the decision to start an OnlyFans was an easy one.

“Launching an OnlyFans was a no-brainer,” said Kyrgios.

“They are revolutionising social media and I wanted to be a part of that. Athletes can no longer just show up on the court or the field, we have to show up online too.

“I want to create, produce, direct and own content. That’s the future.

“I’ve been speaking to my fans directly for years and I know what they want to see.

“Of course, there’ll be tennis balls involved, tips, tricks and behind the scenes, but also they’ll get to see all different sides of me.

“Gaming, tattoos, my intimate side – it’s all on the table and I’ll be bringing fans along for the ride!”

While OnlyFans started out as a social media platform for anyone to be able to produce and share photos and videos with fans, it quickly became known for sexually explicit content.

It is unknown just how much of Kygrios, and possibly his girlfriend Costeen Hatzi, fans will be able to see, but it does mention a few things on his account.

“Subscribe here to interact with me like neve before. You will see:”

• “Behind the scenes on the tennis tour
• My life outside of tennis
• An inside look at events I am a part of
• Fan interaction
• Giveaways”
