Kyrgios was a set down and staring down the barrel at break point at 5-5 before pulling off a stunning turnaround.
He held serve, won a second set tie-break before taking a champions tie-break in the decider to complete a dramatic win.
Victory kept the Rest of the World in the tie at 7-3 down on day two, with two points being awarded for Kyrgios' victory.
And the secret, the Aussie bad boy says, was the support from team-mates in his box - and captain John McEnroe.
He told Sky Sports: "Me and Mac [McEnroe] actually get on really well. We kind of joke around a little bit and we can get on well.

"The bench is such a great help. They're all good friends of mine and we're all becoming great friends.
"They got behind me and I got a crucial win today.
"I always knew it was going to be a tough match playing Tomas, in his hometown obviously.
"He came out swinging. We've played each other a couple of times and I know exactly what he's capable of.
"Props to him, he played a great first set, but I served well, hung in and got a crucial win for my team."
