Japanese tennis star Kei Nishikori has announced that he will be unable to compete at the 2023 Delray Beach Open due to ongoing injury issues.

The former world no. 4 has been plagued by injuries in recent years, and has not played a match since October 2021, when he lost to Daniel Evans at the Indian Wells Masters. Nishikori has made several attempts to return to the tour in 2022, but has been forced to withdraw from various events due to his injuries.
