Nick Kyrgios is out of French Open due to a Knee Injury
Nick Kyrgios is an Australian professional tennis player who withdrew from the French Open, which is going to start on May 22, 2023.
Kyrgios already missed three ATP 1000 clay court tournaments in 2023 due to his knee injury. He underwent knee surgery in January, which made him miss all the events in 2023, and right now, he is not looking right to be back on the court, but his agent said that he wants to be on the court as soon as possible.
“It’s not looking likely. We are trying everything we can to have Nick ready on court as soon as possible,”

Pat Cash, who was a former world number 4th rank tennis player, said that Nick Kyrgios is playing the Victim role, and just to gain sympathy, he is delaying his return to the court, which is a big statement from anyone toward a player.
“I’ve said this quite a number of years ago, I said if Nick can just improve his mental capacity to be able to focus in matches just 5% every year or 3% every year then he’ll be a contender for Grand Slams. And that’s exactly what he’s done. He’s done really well in that respect,”
Pat Cash said in one of the interview
Pat Cash also talks about Kyrgios’s behavior on the court as very bad, and he is a short temper which will always come his way while playing tennis, and it is true. There were several events where Nick Kyrgios was seen frustrated with his form and umpire decisions in many matches. However, Pat said that Kyrgios is talented and skilled, but his attitude is not right for sports, and he should change it as soon as possible.
Patrick Mouratoglou, one of the legendary coaches and the former coach of Serena William, also said that Nick Kyrgios is one of the best servers in the world of tennis.
