Nick Kyrgios has tried to further hose down any suggestions of a "feud" with Canadian rapper Drake, having declared the rapper's show with Lil Wayne as the "best concert ever" on Twitter.

The unlikely feud began ahead of the ESPN sports awards, when Drake, the host, threatened to "size up" the Canberra teen "and then chop him right down".
Drake was responding to a quip Kyrgios made about a slow start to his third-round Wimbledon match against fellow wildcard Jiri Vesily after listening to Drake’s music as he went onto court.
"I came out really flat, so hopefully I won’t listen to that again. It was actually Drake. Didn’t do the job for me," Kyrgios said after the match.
It seems Drake's live performance was more to the tennis ace's liking. The 19-year-old posted photos of his VIP ticket to the New York show, and declaring Drake's song Started From The Bottom the standout.
Best concert ever. @Drake & @LilTunechi killed it. Enjoyed every moment. My favourite - Started From The Bottom. pic.twitter.com/LihDPvcpN7 — Nicholas Kyrgios (@NickKyrgios) August 20, 2014
It's the second social media olive branch the new Bonds underwear ambassador has offered since Drake's original threat, having tweeted "Let's be clear. I like @Drake - love his music" soon after the rapper made his remarks.
There is no indication of whether the Canadian - who has a whole section in his Wikipedia entry devoted to his feuds - offered him the VIP ticket personally.
Nick Kyrgios is in New York ahead of the US Open, which begins next week.
