Read our privacy policy Nick Kyrgios marked his return from injury with an entertaining doubles victory alongside Novak Djokovic in the Brisbane International. “We promised that we were going to do this one more time before either he goes or I go so I’m glad we’re still alive!” Kyrgios initially underwent knee surgery in January 2023 and returned to action in June of that year, but played only one match before pulling out of Wimbledon due to a torn ligament in his right wrist. Nick Kyrgios and Novak Djokovic celebrate during their doubles win over Alexander Erler and Andreas Mies in the Brisbane International “I’m glad to share the court with him on his comeback. “I played my last competitive tournament a few months ago, I ended my season quite early, just wanted to get my things together, physically recover and work really on perfecting my game as much as I can “There’s a lot of great players, really quick, dynamic, powerful players nowadays, youngsters that I have to keep up with.”
