Australian No 1 Nick Kyrgios has vowed to show Britain his best at Queen's and Wimbledon this summer.

The 22-year-old will join a star-studded line-up, which includes defending Queen's champion Andy Murray, Rafael Nadal, Stan Wawrinka, Milos Raonic and Grigor Dimitrov, for the tournament which starts on June 19.

Despite attracting negative headlines last year, Kyrgios has largely been making waves on the court with impressive performances, including beating world number two Novak Djokovic back-to-back in Acapulco and Indian Wells.

Kyrgios said: "I'm real excited and pumped to be coming back to Queen's. It's a great tournament, with Wimbledon soon after, and I love playing on grass.

"I don't think British people haven't seen the best of me yet, I was very young when I had that run at Wimbledon.

"Mentally I have improved a lot recently. I'm in a great place at the moment" he added. "I feel like I've matured and that's helping me, I'm playing better tennis and I'm getting some better results."
