Smash City aligns with Kyrgios’ interest in pickleball, where he’s also an investor, and reflects his broader media presence, including his Netflix Break Point appearance. Vickery’s involvement highlights the evolving role of athletes in digital platforms, sparking debates about personal branding.
As Kyrgios prepares for a potential US Open mixed doubles appearance, his OnlyFans venture expands his off-court influence. Vickery continues to balance her tennis career with her controversial side hustle, navigating criticism while leveraging her platform for financial success.
