Nick Kyrgios: ‘I want to die on the show like the dog’

Nick Kyrgios had to raise the white flag and did not take the court at the Australian Open due to a lateral meniscus injury. An injury that forced him to undergo surgery and that will keep him away from the courts for an unspecified period of time. “I am devastated. Here I won the doubles tournament last year, here I played the best tennis of my life, now I can only do everything possible to get back on court. Right now I feel mixed emotions. After the last Grad Slam I played, the US Open last year, I was very hard on myself. This injury doesn’t allow me to move well, the only way to solve the problem is an operation.” Daniel Horsfall, Kyrgios’ manager for many years, offered important news to the SEN Sportsday microphones. “The operation was great. To be honest, we couldn’t have asked for a better result. We are all very happy, the team is ready to go back to work. When Nick is ready, we’ll be ready,” Horsfall explained. “At the moment he wears a knee brace and still can’t move freely. In a few days there will be a post-op review to check how we are doing, but we are in daily contact with the surgeon and the physiotherapist. We are very happy, he may recover sooner than we thought at first, and that is very good news. The goal is to successfully complete the rehabilitation phase and get back on the pitch as soon as possible.” Nick Kyrgios’ last official match was at the ATP 500 in Tokyo and his last performance was in the exhibition he played with Novak Djokovic at Rod Laver Arena. His return has no date, but many expect it to be at the Indian Wells Masters 1000.

Nick Kyrgios shone in 2022

Nick Kyrgios came out as a “massive” conspiracy theorist, giving his take on the most popular conspiracy theories going around at the moment. “I’m a massive conspiracy theorist,” he said. “I don’t even know what to believe anymore.” The conversation soon turned to other topics, when the 27-year-old stated that he loved romantic comedies and horror movies. “I love romantic comedies. Have you seen the Intern? With Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway. You should see it. Horrors and romcoms are my thing. I’m actually in talk with the producer of ‘Saw’ right now, I’m trying to get into the movie, like I want to die on the show like the dog,” Nick Kyrgios said. “I’m a real sicko.”
