Nick Kyrgios and Thanasi Kokkinakis
We won't know for a while how this pair measure up above the shoulders, but the signs are cause for optimism.
Rea, who is coaching Kyrgios one-on-one under Tennis Australia's new coaching regime, called his pupil ''incredibly driven'' and ''hugely competitive'', with ''a big personality'' and belief in his ability.
Kyrgios and Rea have identified physicality - the teen has had a sore shoulder - and net play as areas needing work, adding: ''There's some things Nick and I have identified in the way he goes about things from a mentality perspective that we both agree he can be better at.
''If he can take care of … things on a daily basis, the ranking gains will take care of themselves.''
The same applies to Kokkinakis, who as Newk suggested, wasn't afraid of the moment on showcourt three. When other Australians faltered, the Ks seized it. ''We're all incredibly excited about what may lie in wait for them,'' said Rea. ''But also understand the long journey that's ahead and we hope there's another crop of youngsters not far behind them.''

Super moons in January 2014
While supermoons don’t normally impact much, they may bring higher tides than usual.
The term supermoon came from astrologer Richard Nolle over 30 years ago, and is only now coming into popular usage, according to EarthSky. Nolle said a supermoon is “a new or full moon which occurs with the moon at or near (within 90% of) its closest approach to Earth in a given orbit.”
This usually means an average of four to six supermoons per year.
The other supermoons in 2014 will be on July 12, on August 10, and on September 9. The moon will be the closest to the Earth on August 10.
Before supermoons were called supermoons, they were referred to perigee full moon, or perigee new moon. Perigee means “the point in the orbit of the moon or a satellite at which it is nearest to the earth,” being derived from the Greek word perigeion, which meant ”close around the Earth.”
