Kyrgios 'disappointed' after Wimbledon blow
Nick Kyrgios will miss Wimbledon for a third successive year after another injury setback. The Australian has not played at the All England Club since reaching his only grand slam singles final in 2022, where he was beaten by Novak Djokovic. After more than two years on the sidelines with knee and wrist problems, Kyrgios returned at the start of this season but was forced to abandon plans to play doubles at the French Open after suffering another knee injury. And he has now revealed he will not be able to play in his favourite part of the season, writing on Instagram: "Just wanted to give everyone a quick update – I've hit a small setback in my recovery and unfortunately won't make it back for grass this year. "I know how much you've all been looking forward to seeing me out there, and I'm genuinely sorry to disappoint. This is just a bump in the road though, and I'm already working hard to get back stronger than ever. "Thank you for all your continued support – it means everything to me. See you soon!" The 30-year-old's career was put in jeopardy by a torn ligament in his wrist in 2023, which required surgery and kept him out for a year and a half. He finally returned to action in January but admitted after losing to Britain's Jacob Fearnley in the first round of the Australian Open that he might have played his last singles match at Melbourne Park. He was in tears when more pain in his wrist prompted him to retire at Indian Wells in March, although he did win his first singles match since 2022 against Mackenzie McDonald in Miami later that month in what was his most recent tournament. Kyrgios was still a draw at Wimbledon last year after moving into TV punditry, while he will be appearing at the New Wimbledon Theatre on June 24 as part of the live tour of his podcast 'Good Trouble'.

Former finalist Kyrgios out of Wimbledon with injury
LONDON - The 2022 Wimbledon finalist Nick Kyrgios said that he will miss this year's tournament and the grass-court season after "a small setback" on his latest injury return. The 30-year-old Australian has played very little tennis over the last two years because of various injuries, notably a wrist problem that required surgery. In March at the Miami Open he won his first singles match since 2022 but he pulled out of the ongoing French Open, where he had been down to play men's doubles, with a knee injury. "I've hit a small setback in my recovery and unfortunately won't make it back for grass season this year," he wrote on Instagram. "I know how much you've all been looking forward to seeing me out there and I'm genuinely sorry to disappoint." Kyrgios, whose undoubted talent has often been overshadowed by his fragile temperament, added: "This is just a bump in the road though and I'm already working hard to get back stronger than ever." Kyrgios reached the final at Wimbledon three years ago before going down in four sets to Novak Djokovic. The third Grand Slam of the year starts on June 30.

Nick Kyrgios will miss Wimbledon this year
LONDON — Nick Kyrgios, the Wimbledon runner-up in 2022, will miss the Grand Slam tournament and the rest of the grass-court season, he said. The 30-year-old Australian has dealt with injuries in recent seasons, including wrist and knee operations. He's played only five singles matches in 2025, going 1-4. His most recent tournament was the Miami Open in March, when he won a match for the first time in nearly 2 1/2 years. 'I've hit a small setback in my recovery and unfortunately won't make it back for grass season this year,' Kyrgios posted. He's ranked 633rd. He was as high as 13th in 2016. Three years ago at the All England Club, he made his best run at a major tournament by getting to the final before losing to Novak Djokovic. Wimbledon begins on June 30.
