Nick Kyrgios has suffered another predictable blow in his ailing tennis career, having to pull out of the US Open men's singles with injury.
It's the third successive year that the 30-year-old Australian has withdrawn from the New York grand slam and he has now missed the season's final three majors after getting knocked out in the first round at his home Open in Melbourne in January.
Kyrgios, the Wimbledon finalist in 2022, went on to reach the quarter-finals at the US Open that year but has struggled ever since then with a catalogue of foot, knee and wrist injuries.
