Brisbane International Tournament Director Sheds Light On Kyrgios' Comeback

Fans are hopeful to see Nick Kyrgios compete back home in Australia in 2024, but for now, we don't know if it will actually happen.

The knee injury for Nick Kyrgios turned out to be a nightmare fairly quickly, but nobody really anticipated how big of a nightmare it would ultimately end up being.

The Australian played only one match this year, in Stuttgart on grass, which was an attempt to come back. It didn't go well, and he has not played a single match since then.

For a while, it seemed like the knee was the issue, but a wrist injury happened, and since then, it's been mostly silence. We don't actually know what's going on with Kyrgios, as he's not really providing any updates.

These days he's mostly busy tweeting about the Boston Celtics, his favourite NBA team, and how their season has been going. Some new information was provided by the Brisbane International tournament director, Cam Pearson, who said the approach was 'wait and see.'

If you're wondering whether that is good or bad news, it's definitely the latter. By now Kyrgios should have been on the courts, but if he's really waiting to see then that's not good.

The director further confirmed that there is still a month before entries close, so we'll have to wait and see whether his name does pop up on the list.

It's a huge shame for Kyrgios who admittedly never really cared much about his body until recently, but after having the best year of his life in 2022, the way this one went has been heartbreaking. Still, let's hope he does come back and plays as well as he did in 2022.
