Kyrgios brings Ben Stiller into beef with fan
Actor Ben Stiller found himself dragged into some drama between Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios and a fan at Indian Wells on Thursday.
Kyrgios was responding to a heckling spectator during his quarterfinal loss to Rafael Nadal when he gestured toward Stiller, who was seated in the crowd, and said, "Do I tell him how to act? No."
Stiller and his wife, Christine Taylor, could be seen grinning after the remark.

Does @NickKyrgios tell @BenStiller how to act? Don’t think so…#IndianWells pic.twitter.com/wrq9j5VBSi
Kyrgios let out more frustration after the match by slamming his racket onto the ground, which caused it to bounce and nearly hit a ball boy.
He reached out to the ball boy afterward to apologize and shared the exchange on Twitter.
