Australian Open > Kyrgios' huge announcement after his first round defeat: “Really, I don't see myself playing singles again here…”

Beaten in the first round of the Australian Open, as in Brisbane for his comeback, Nick Kyrgios dropped a small bomb in a pressure conference by announcing that he would probably not play singles again in Melbourne.

“Realistically, I don't see myself playing singles here again, so… Yes, it was special. It's true that it was very good. I didn't want to throw in the towel and give up. I was in physical pain. I respect my opponent. Fans waited hours to see me play. But it’s true that I don’t see myself playing a singles match again here”declared the Australian, affected in the abdominals and diminished since his serious wrist injury.
