Khachanov began taking over, and Kyrgios got frustrated by it — at one point appearing to yell loudly at people in the stands.

Then, after Khachanov sealed the victory 5-7, 6-4, 5-7, 7-6 (7-3), 4-6, Kyrgios exploded.

Video shot by spectators in the stands shows he hurled not one but two of his rackets onto the court — blowing them to smithereens.

Afterward, a downtrodden Kyrgios said he was heartbroken over the Loss.

“I’m just devastated, just feel like it was either winning it all or nothing at all, to be honest,” Kyrgios told reporters. “I feel like I’ve just failed at this event right now, that’s what it feels like.

“Honestly, I don’t even really care about any other tournament. Like, I feel like at the Grand Slams, now having success at a Grand Slam, it’s just like no other tournament really matters. I think pretty much every other tournament during the year is a waste of time really.

“You should just run up and show up at a Grand Slam, that’s what you’re remembered by. It’s just devastating, like, it’s heartbreaking. Not just for me, but for everyone that I know that wants me to win.”
