Australia's Nick Kyrgios has pulled out of the Adelaide International next week due to injury.SYDNEY - An injured Nick Kyrgios pulled out of next week's Adelaide International II, but his team insisted he was in"no doubt" for the Australian Open.
"We know that the Adelaide International was a key lead-up event for Nick, and I know he is disappointed to not be able to play in Adelaide this year," tournament director Alistair MacDonald said."We wish him well for the Australian Open." Kyrgios was due to play in the second next week, alongside the likes of Andrey Rublev, Lorenzo Musetti and Dan Evans.
He added that Kyrgios, who had a stellar season last year, reaching his first Grand Slam final at Wimbledon, was making"good progress" and was in"no doubt at all" for the Australian Open starting on January 16.
