Greek Australian tennis superstar Nick Kyrgios has finally announced his long-awaited return to the court, agreeing to compete at the UTS tournament in New York in August of this year.
After suffering from a persistent injury that led to his withdrawal from almost every major Grand Slam tournament in 2023, the former Wimbledon finalist initially made a shocking statement suggesting he may never make a comeback to the sport. However, he later retracted his comments, leaving tennis fans in Australia and around the world eagerly waiting for updates on his future plans.
During his time away from competitive play, Kyrgios seemed to have found enjoyment in other aspects of the game. He took on roles as a commentator during the Australian Open, the first Grand Slam of 2024, and also served as a coach for Frances Tiafoe at the Ulta Tennis Showdown (UTS) in Los Angeles last year. Despite these endeavors, the speculation regarding retirement persisted.
Now, Kyrgios' recent announcement of his participation in the UTS tournament in New York has put the retirement rumors to rest and brought a sense of excitement for his return to the court.
