NEW DELHI: Nick Kyrgios has said that he will not feature in the Australian Open singles draw and instead will focus on doubles, where he is expected to again pair up with Thanasi Kokkinakis.
“After some good conversations with TA, I’ve made the call to focus on doubles for this year’s AO. I’m fit and back on court, but 5-setters are a different beast and I’m not quite ready to go the distance yet, ” Kyrgios shared in his Instagram story section on Friday.
“This tournament means everything to me but I’d rather give my spot to someone who’s ready to make their moment count. It’s all building blocks and I’ll be back next year and pumped to compete. See you out there, " he added.
