Kyrgios had sparked controversy when he made lewd remarks to Stan Wawrinka during their Montreal Masters match last year. He was also handed a suspended ban and a fine by the ATP tour for his remark.
Reflecting on his previous season, the 20-year-old mercurial player said that although he had a roller coaster ride in the previous year, he added he has no regrets for his behavior, News.com.au reported.
Kyrgios said that he had grown up as a person since the incident, insisting that he had been trying to become much more mature.
The Australian tennis-brat would play along with retiring Lleyton Hewitt for Australian Green at the Hopman Cup before heading into the Australian Open.
