Nick Kyrgios to miss French Open due to knee injury

Tennis ace Nick Kyrgios will miss the French Open after failing to recover in time from knee surgery.

The Australian, who is well known for his antics and outbursts, underwent the surgery back in January. He hasn't featured in a Grand Slam tournament since reaching the quarter-finals of the US Open back in September 2022. He also missed this year's Australian Open due to the same injury.

There had been rumours he may play but it was confirmed earlier today that he would indeed miss the tournament. Play gets underway on the clay of Roland Garros on Monday 22nd May.
