Nick Kyrgios drops out of Wimbledon after injury setback

·

Australian tennis star Nick Kyrgios has pulled out of Wimbledon and the entire 2025 grass court season after another injury setback, continuing a turbulent run since his comeback earlier this year.

“Just wanted to give everyone a quick update – I’ve hit a small setback in my recovery and unfortunately won’t make it back for grass season this year,” Kyrgios wrote on social media.

“This is just a bump in the road though, and I’m already working hard to get back stronger than ever.”

Kyrgios, 29, has struggled with knee and wrist injuries since his standout 2022 season, which included a Wimbledon singles final and an Australian Open doubles title.

He has played only five singles matches in 2025, with one win and early exits at the Australian Open and Indian Wells.

The latest withdrawal follows his last-minute pullout from the French Open, where he was due to play doubles with Jordan Thompson. “He told me he doesn’t know how many more of these injuries he can take,” Thompson said. “He seemed pretty down.”

Kyrgios’ injuries began with a knee issue that required surgery in early 2023. A series of further setbacks — including a foot injury during a robbery at his Canberra home and a wrist injury in mid-2023 — have kept him off the court for most of the past two years.

His most recent match was a two-set loss to Karen Khachanov in Miami in March.
