The much-anticipated Wimbledon 2023 has finally kicked off, with fans eagerly awaiting the drama and excitement that the iconic tournament is known for.

Last year, Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios stole the spotlight with his remarkable performances and controversial behavior on the court, making him a fan favorite.

Kyrgios powered his way into the final of Wimbledon 2022, where he delivered a thrilling match against Novak Djokovic, eventually falling short of the title. However, his journey this year has hit a roadblock, as he has been forced to pull out of the tournament due to a wrist injury.

Following a nine-month hiatus from competitive play, Kyrgios had hoped to make a comeback at Wimbledon. Unfortunately, a recent scan revealed a torn ligament in his wrist, forcing him to make the difficult decision to withdraw from the tournament.

In a statement, Kyrgios expressed his disappointment, saying, “I’m really sad to say that I have to withdraw from Wimbledon this year. I tried everything to be able to play, but I just didn’t have enough time to manage the injury before the tournament.”

Despite the setback, Kyrgios remains optimistic about his return to the court in the future, thanking his fans for their continued support.
