The Australian tennis player was already doing strength exercises to come back after knee surgery. However, the incident forced him to stop the preparation.
An unfortunate situation saw Nick Kyrgios. The Australian tennis player suffered a foot injury which prevented him from preparing to face the next edition of Roland Garros .
As published by The Canberra Times, the athlete was at home when he tried to defend his family from a robbery that happened earlier this month, in which the thief ended up taking a Tesla vehicle of the tennis player’s property.
In the midst of all this chaos, Kyrgios suffered a cut on his foot which he was only able to realize once the adrenaline of the situation had subsided, after which he had to seek medical attention.
It was precisely this that kept him away from an exhibition tournament he had planned in Denmark with Holger Rune and marginalized him from Roland Garros.
The event was reported by Daniel Horsfall, Kyrgios’ manager. “The knee operation was the best possible and the rehabilitation was going wonderfully, we were already doing loads and movements on the slopes. We had to get to a point where he could play five sets. But just as we were harnessing our efforts, the alleged armed robbery took place at his home and in the process he suffered a major cut on his foot. “, Explain.
“We don’t know how it happened, but it’s a pretty big breakdown. From the location of the wound, it has been open for almost a week and a half. He hasn’t healed well and we haven’t been able to train for the past two weeks. “, he added.
With that, she will most likely be back for the start of the grass-court season, where she hopes to return to the tournament in Stuttgart on June 12.
“We will resume training once the wound starts to heal and heal. We are still thinking about coming back for the first grass court tournament. As for his knee injury, it couldn’t have gone better. We had no hiccups and he may have been in better shape than he was this time last year, but he couldn’t increase his track hours. “, a point.
“It would have been a disservice to everyone to play unprepared. This is the longest break outside of tennis due to injury. I was ready but the schedule had to be readjusted. We may play more tournaments in the second half of the year “, he completed.
Another loss due to injury
Of course, the absence of Kyrgios is not the only one that the French tournament will have due to injury. This Thursday, Rafael Nadal confirmed at a press conference that he will also not be able to be present at the grand slam due to the difficulties he has encountered in regaining his physical form after undergoing an operation for a condition of the iliopsoas.
“The injury I suffered in Australia did not evolve as expected. I lost targets along the way. Roland Garros becomes impossible . I will not be able to be there after many years and with what this appointment means to me, ”said the man from Manacor.
In addition, the Spaniard took the opportunity to discuss the end of his professional activity. “These are difficult years even if the victories mask it. I make a point and a part. At this point, not ready to be able to compete at the level I need. I have to put an end to my sports career. I will try to regenerate my body. I will not set a return date. When he’s ready, he’ll try to be. The Davis Cup, at the end of the year, can be a goal. And try to face next year with guarantees in what I think will be my last year “, he exposed.
