Mark Philippoussis is convinced Nick Kyrgios can win the Australian Open - but his ringing endorsement comes with a word of warning.Philippoussis believes Kyrgioss explosive firepower and rare shot-making could make the 21-year-old untouchable on Melbourne Parks hard courts this summer.Speaking from experience, though, Philippoussis has also implored the tempestuous talent to realise youth is fleeting and not to waste his rich potential.You blink and hell be 26 years old and all of a sudden hell be kind of mid-20s or maybe 30 in the world and itll be like what happened to him? Philippoussis told AAP on Thursday.Theres no such thing as tomorrow. Its only today.Philippoussis is disappointed that Kyrgioss late-season suspension for tanking at the Shanghai Masters has overshadowed the Australians three-title year and rise to a career-high world No.13.Dont get me wrong, I definitely cant support what happened and he knows that he screwed up too, but he had a hell of a year, Philippoussis said.If I was coaching Nick, I would say whats very important is that you cant change who you are. Everyone is their own person and has their own personality.But at the same time Id just tell him a couple of things about being aware of where he is and realising what he has and not taking that for granted.Just try and reach out to him because, truthfully, if theres one person that can relate to certain things that hes going through, its me.A dual Davis Cup winner, two-time grand slam finalist and former world No.8, Philippoussis nevertheless remains in many eyes - though not his - one of tenniss great underachievers.Now 40, the Scud is keen to see Kyrgios cash in on his immense talent and urged the two-time grand slam quarter-finalist to aim high - and commit to becoming physically and mentally stronger.He has what it takes to win the Australian Open. Its as simple as that. He has the game, Philippoussis said.But hes got to believe that and he cannot go out and be happy with a quarter-final and just be satisfied.Philippoussis said Kyrgios should draw inspiration from Andy Murray.Its inspiring. (Murrays) always been gifted and physically strong, but hes grown so much mentally and thats what Nick needs to do. Hes got to toughen up mentally.That showed at Wimbledon, where he fell apart after he had that incredible first set against Murray. http://www.brownsrookiestore.com/ .J. -- Josh Cribbs was in the Pro Bowl in February and out of a job six months later. http://www.brownsrookiestore.com/Browns-Kevin-Hogan-Jersey/ .

CHICAGO -- The bullpen flopped, the offense disappeared late and the Chicago Cubs again couldnt escape their worst funk this season.Tucker Barnhart hit a go-ahead, three-run homer off Trevor Cahill in the seventh inning, and the Cincinnati Reds beat Chicago 5-3 Wednesday -- the Cubs 12th loss in 17 games.A day after having seven players selected for next weeks All-Star Game, the Cubs lost to the last-place Reds for the second time in three days and dropped below the San Francisco Giants for the majors best record.I cant connect a bunch of negative dots. It just happened, said manager Joe Maddon, who believes this poor stretch is more a snapshot than a sign of bigger problems.Im not really that concerned, he said.Still, the Cubs had been atop the majors since April. Shortstop Addison Russell, part of the entire infield voted in as NL starters, couldnt explain how theyve lost their form.The past few weeks it hasnt been working, Russell said, but we still have high hopes and high faith.Chicago led 3-1 when Brandon Phillips and Jose Peraza hit consecutive one-out singles against Cahill (1-3) and Barnhart sent a 2-2 sinker into the basket in center field for his third home run this year.It brought everyone to life, I can tell you that, Reds manager Bryan Price said.Zack Cozart homered for the third straight game, starting Cincinnatis offense with his eighth career leadoff homer. The Reds lone All-Star, Adam Duvall, walked and scored on Carl Edwards Jr.s wild pitch in the eighth.Anthony DeSclafani (3-0) allowed three runs and eight hits in six innings, struck out six and walked none. Michael Lorenzen pitched two hitless innings, and Tony Cingrani got three straight outs for his 10th save in 15 chances.The Reds improved to 3-10 against their division rivals.We should be more competitive against everybody, I think, once we get our pitching into good shape, Price said. I think were closer.Adam Warren was called up from Triple-A Iowa to give the Chicago rotation extra rest with a spot start, and he allowed three hits in five innings, retiring his final 11 batters.Russell hit an RBI double in the seecond and scored on Miguel Monteros single, and Ben Zobrists fifth-inning homer gave the Cubs a 3-1 lead.dddddddddddd.But the Cubs didnt have a hit after the fifth inning. Theyre 1-5 in their last six home games after starting 25-8 at Wrigley Field.Listen, the big thing we need to do better in the latter part of the game is scoring runs, Maddon said. If its close, were behind or its tied were just not doing a really good job of finishing off games offensively.TRAINERS ROOMReds: RF Jay Bruce, left off the All-Star team, didnt start to rest assorted aches and pains. He pinch hit in the ninth and walked before being thrown out trying to steal second. Hes just beat up right now, manager Bryan Price said. Bruce took his All-Star snub in stride. Im not the first guy to be left off and Im not going to be the last, he said.Cubs: CF Dexter Fowlers first All-Star Game is uncertain as he recovers from a strained right hamstring. Manager Joe Maddon said the team will decide in the next few days whether Fowler is ready for a minor league rehab assignment. ...

While with Boston, he missed much of 2013 after taking foul balls off the mask that May 11 and June 14. ... Tommy La Stella (hamstring) was activated off the DL, started at third and went 1 for 4.PERFECT THIEFCincinnati stole four bases, two by Peraza. He is 12 for 12 in steal attempts, including 9 for 9 this season.WOODROW WILSON STYLEThe teams wore baggy throwback uniforms with high socks to commemorate 100 years at Wrigley Field.
