Kyrgios and Kokkinakis reunite as doubles partners at Australian Open

·

Nick Kyrgios and Thanasi Kokkinakis will team up once again as doubles partners at the 2025 Australian Open, rekindling the fan-favourite ‘Special Ks’ duo.

Kyrgios returns to grand slam action after two injury-plagued years, entering the singles draw with a protected ranking of 21. He will kick off his season in Brisbane before heading to Melbourne Park.

Kokkinakis, who starts his season in Adelaide, is optimistic about Kyrgios’ form, noting his improved fitness and potential to be a “dangerous threat.”

The pair last played together at the 2022 Australian Open, where they thrilled crowds by winning the men’s doubles title. Reflecting on the experience, Kokkinakis said, “Everyone loved it last time — we loved it last time. It was so much fun.”

While their main focus remains on singles, the duo aims to delight fans once more with their on-court chemistry and playful energy.

“We feel that we owe it to people to get back out there and have some fun,” Kokkinakis said.

Kokkinakis, ranked No. 77, is targeting a top-50 breakthrough next season, confident his game is on par with the world’s best.
