SHANGHAI -- Nick Kyrgios was booed during a listless 6-3, 6-1 loss to Mischa Zverev at the Shanghai Masters on Wednesday, then angrily defended his behavior by saying he didnt owe the spectators anything and that fans could just leave if they didnt like his attitude.Just three days after winning the Japan Open, the Australian player, who is known for fiery outbursts and argumentative behavior on court, put in little effort in the second-round match against Zverev, a player ranked 110th in the world who had only won seven ATP Tour matches all season.Kyrgios tapped a soft serve over the net and started walking toward his chair before Zverev had even returned the ball. He floated other first serves in at 67 mph and smacked second-serve faults at 130 mph.Kyrgios hit a risky trick volley between his legs -- and still managed to win the point. On changeovers, he bypassed his chair and waited impatiently to serve, twirling his racket on his fingers.Chair umpire Ali Nili admonished Kyrgios for his behavior in the first set.This is a professional tournament, you have to act like a professional, Nili said.Toward the end of the 48-minute match, the crowd started booing and jeering. One man yelled, Respect the game, prompting a furious reaction from Kyrgios, who shouted, You want to come here and play?Asked after the match whether he thought he owed the spectators a better effort as one of the stars of the game, Kyrgios turned defiant again.What does that even mean? Im good at hitting a tennis ball at the net. Big deal. I dont owe them anything, he said. If you dont like it, I didnt ask you to come watch. Just leave.On his soft serves, he replied flatly, My arm was a little sore.Kyrgios conceded that he didnt put forth his best effort and was mentally drained after winning his third title of the season in Tokyo.I guess thats why Im trying to work on being able to be consistent every week, Kyrgios said. Just took the easy way out tonight and obviously didnt show up at all.He added that he is so tired from the lengthy season, that hes not interested in chasing one of the last spots for the ATP finals next month.I couldnt care less, to be completely honest with you, he said.Kyrgios later apologized on Twitter.Zverev joked about some of Kyrgios serves after the match -- it felt like the last time he played his girlfriend, he said -- but he also defended the Australian and said he shouldnt be criticized for his professionalism.Would Federer behave like that? Probably not, Zverev said. But [Kyrgios] has a creative mind. ... Hes top-15, -16 in the world, so hes doing something right.Zverev also said its normal to be fatigued at the end of a grueling season.You reach a point where youre mentally tired and some people react one way, some people react a different way, Zverev said. It doesnt say anything about whether hes professional or not. Arden Key Jersey . -- Aaron Murray threw for 408 yards and three touchdowns, ran for another score, and led No. John Matuszak Jersey .

And she feels better than ever at age 31. The top-ranked American rolled past Spanish opponent Carla Suarez Navarro 6-2, 6-0 Friday to reach the Italian Open semifinals and extend her victory run to 22 matches. Williams had twice won 21 in a row before, although both of those streaks came a decade ago, in 2002 and 2003. Martina Navratilova established the longest womens win streak in the Open Era at 74 matches in 1984. "Ive been pretty consistent, and pretty healthy -- knock on wood," Williams said. "I feel great -- never felt better." In the other half of the draw, two-time defending champion Maria Sharapova withdrew before her quarterfinal against seventh-seeded Sara Errani due to illness. In mens action, 36th-ranked Benoit Paire of France routed Marcel Granollers of Spain 6-1, 6-0 to reach his first Masters series semifinal. His next opponent will be either 17-time Grand Slam winner Roger Federer or rising Polish player Jerzy Janowicz, who were playing in a night match. Showing off near-perfect form less than 10 days before the French Open, Williams has dropped just three games in her last two matches. Against the 22nd-ranked Suarez, the American hit winners seemingly at will. The 15-time Grand Slam winner has also won her previous three tournaments. Willliams will next face either two-time Rome winner Jelena Jankovic or Romanian qualifier Simona Halep, who were playing later on an overcast day at the Foro Italico.dddddddddddd Williams only title at this clay-court tournament came in 2002, when she beat Justine Henin in the final. That was also the year she won her only French Open title. Last year in Paris, Williams suffered her first ever opening-round loss in a major, falling to 111th-ranked Virginie Razzano of France. Sharapova said he was struggling with an illness she first contracted last week, when she was runner-up to Williams in the Madrid Open, although she showed no problems Thursday as she beat 16th-seeded Sloane Stephens 6-2, 6-1. "I was already a bit off in Madrid and played though it and it came back last night and I got sick again and its not smart to compete again," said Sharapova, adding that she had a fever after beating Stephens. "Obviously with the French Open coming up it is important to make smart decisions." The withdrawal means Errani advances to the semifinals. The Italians opponent will be either third-seeded Victoria Azarenka or ninth-seeded Sam Stosur. The last Italian to reach the semifinals in this tournament was Raffaella Reggi, who won the 1985 event, which was held in the southern city of Taranto. The French Open begins May 26.
