🎾 A “devastated” Nick Kyrgios pulled out of the AustralianOpen on Monday — the day before he was scheduled to play his first-round singles match — because of an injured left knee that needs arthroscopic surgery.
“Barely had a good night’s sleep the last four, five nights. It’s just been throbbing. ... Every time I land on serve or push off my serve, you can see on the side of my knee there’s like a little lump. That lump will eventually just get bigger and bigger," Kyrgios said."There’s pressure on my knee obviously hinders my movement. Yeah, the only real way to get rid of it is to open up and then just get rid of it.
Kyrgios also has been facing a charge of assault in a pending court case in his hometown of Canberra.
