Nick Kyrgios forced to drop out of Wimbledon due to a wrist injury

Last year’s finalist made the announcement on social media, having torn a ligament in his wrist

“I tried everything to be able to play and I am disappointed to say that I just didn’t have enough time to manage it before Wimbledon.”

Kyrgios had been scheduled to begin his campaign against Belgian former quarter-finalist David Goffin on Court One on Monday. The start of an injury-hit season saw Kyrgios pull out of the Australian Open in January, a decision made on the eve of the tournament that left him “devastated”. Surgery on a cyst growing in his meniscus quickly followed and he was not able to return to competitive action until June. He then suffered a first-round loss to China’s Wu Yibing at the Stuttgart Open and struggling with his movement during a straight-set defeat pulled out of the Halle event the following week.
