Nick Kyrgios just got a mandatory provisional suspension after the Mallorca sample came back with a cocaine metabolite. His Instagram move is to take full responsibility then ask everyone to respect his privacy for 28 days. He wrote that he made a huge mistake. Then he said he is leaving social media and public life. That order is what makes it so funny. The ITIA already announced it and the ban started August 4, so he cannot play, coach or attend sanctioned events anyway. He has not appealed. He was a wildcard who lost first round to Adam Walton. Now Kyrgios wants people to look away after he already posted the confession, hoping the post disappears if he logs off. The WADA lab already confirmed the metabolite, so logging off does not change the result. He wants privacy after publishing the confession himself, which is one way to outsource the press release and then resent the audience. Mallorca gave him one first-round exit; the metabolite gave him the longer schedule.
