BREAKING: Nick Kyrgios pulls out of this year's Wimbledon with wrist injury
The Australian, who finished runner-up at in the men's singles event in last year's championships, has had a year of injury struggles having played just one match since having knee surgery in January.He said: "Hey everyone. I'm really sad to say that I have to withdraw from Wimbledon this year."During my comeback, I experienced some pain in my wrist during the week of Mallorca. As a precaution I had it scanned and it came back showing a torn ligament in my wrist.
"I tried everything to be able to play and I am disappointed to say that I just didn't have enough time to manage it before Wimbledon."I'll be back, and as always, I appreciate the support from all my fans." Kyrgios had been scheduled to begin his campaign against Belgian former quarter-finalist David Goffin on No.1 Court on Monday.
The 28-year-old has been unable to build on his sole Grand Slam final appearance after withdrawing from the Australian Open in January due to a knee injury which required surgery. He had played only one match since, a defeat to Wu Yibing in Stuttgart last month, and admitted during his pre-tournament media rounds on Sunday that he was 'almost dreading' his return.
