Nick Kyrgios reflects on tennis comeback and family life

·

Nick Kyrgios has revealed his mixed emotions about returning to the intense world of professional tennis as he prepares for his comeback at the Brisbane International this December, ending an 18-month hiatus.

According to The Advertiser, during his break, Kyrgios found solace off the court, spending time with family and reflecting on the sacrifices required as an Australian tennis player, often missing significant family moments.

“Being injured… I’ve almost caught up on those moments that I was missing. I just don’t take anything for granted these days,” he shared.

With long-term partner Costeen Hatzi and family by his side, Kyrgios also expressed his desire for a large family of his own.

Still, he feels compelled to return to tennis, saying, “I think there’s a lot left that I have to give to the sport, to my fans… they want to just see it one more time.”

Brisbane tournament director Cam Pearson highlighted a stellar line-up featuring Alexei Popyrin, Jordan Thompson, and Ajla Tomljanovic. Officials anticipate the event will attract 50,000 visitors, generating $6 million for the local economy.
