FirstpostKyrgios, 27, did not appear for the initial hearing, and details of the charge have not yet been disclosed. Canberra: Australian tennis ace Nick Kyrgios will face court on alleged assault charges in October, after a Canberra magistrate rejected his appeal for a months-long delay Tuesday. During brief proceedings, his lawyer Michael Kukulies-Smith indicated he would seek to have the case heard on 25 November. Mr Kukulies-Smith did not outline details of the application, citing the presence in court of a “large contingent of media.” He said the world number 26 Kyrgios, who reached his first Grand Slam final at Wimbledon last month and is due to play at the US Open in New York starting on Monday, spent little time in the Australian capital but there was a window at that time in November.
