Despite making a first-round exit at Queen's Club, Australian controversial tennis star Nick Kyrgios has vowed to 'chill out ' ahead of the third major of the season namely Wimbledon.

Kyrgios knocked out of the Aegon Championships at Queen's Club after going down 7-6 (7-5), 4-6, 4-6 at the hands of third seed Milos Raonic of Canada in the opening round.

The 21-year-old admitted that he didn't serve well throughout the game, while adding that he was quite impressed with the way Raonic played.

Despite the defeat, Kyrgios said that he would not do anything for the next couple of days and is just going to 'chill out,' news.com.au reported.

The Australian, who is not bothered by the defeat, insisted that he had put in a lot of hard work on the grass and is now fully prepared for the Wimbledon.

Kyrgios will now play in next week's contest exhibition matches at Stoke Park with top-ranked Novak Djokovic, Juan Martin del Potro, Alexander Zverev and Borna Coric.

Meanwhile, Wimbledon is slated to be held from June 27 to July 10.
