CNN —Nick Kyrgios has pulled out of Wimbledon on the eve of this year’s tournament after failing to recover from a wrist injury.
“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.
Wimbledon responded to the news by wishing Kyrgios a “swift recovery.”“Hope to see you back on our courts next year,” the tournament tweeted.
Novak Djokovic is once again favourite to win the men’s tournament where he can equal Roger Federer’s record of eight Wimbledon men’s titles.
