The Wimbledon finalist spoke of his intentions at a SXSW event in Sydney on Thursday.
Nick Kyrgios has announced he will play in the 2025 Australian Open in an effort to claim the first grand slam singles title of his career.
“Everything has gone semi-well, and I will be playing the Australia Open this summer. It’s been a brutal last couple of years ... but just being out there to play in front of a home crowd … I just want to be out there, lighting up the crowd and playing in front of my own country. Kyrgios’ greatest grand slam singles success was in 2022 when he played Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final. He managed to take the first set off Djokovic, before the then-world No.1 went on to win the championship in four sets.That same year Kyrgios had won the 2022 Australian Open doubles title with fellow Australian Thanasi Kokkinakis, but he is yet to make it past the quarter-finals in the singles draw at his home Slam.
