Nick Kyrgios will not compete in the 2024 Australian Open.
The 28-year-old was not on the entry list for the season's first major. He confirmed on Friday that he will not play his home Slam for the second consecutive year.
The only match Kyrgios played in 2023 came in Stuttgart, where he lost in straight sets to Wu Yibing.
"This is a very disappointing time for me, but I won't be able to compete at the 2024 Australian Open," Kyrgios said on a social media platform.
"Obviously, heartbreaking. I've had so many amazing memories there, and I just want to really get back to playing at the top of my game and doing it right, and I need a little more time."
In 2022, the Australian enjoyed one of the best seasons of his career. Kyrgios reached the Wimbledon final and won the Australian Open doubles title with close friend Thanasi Kokkinakis. His journey through the year was documented on Netflix's Break Point.
