Is Nick Kyrgios playing at Wimbledon? Latest updates and news

Kyrgios will not play at Wimbledon in 2025.

It marks the third consecutive year the Australian will be absent from the famous grass court tournament.

He has struggled with wrist, knee and foot problems in the past few years.

The 30-year-old suffered an injury setback ahead of Roland-Garros, which saw him withdraw from the entire grass season.

"Just wanted to give everyone a quick update, I've hit a small setback in my recovery and unfortunately won't make it back for grass season this year," Kyrgios wrote on Instagram.

"I know how much you've all been looking forward to seeing me out there, and I'm genuinely sorry to disappoint.

"This is just a bump in the road, though, and I'm already working hard to get back stronger than ever.

"Thank you for all your continued support, it means everything to me. See you soon!"

Nick Kyrgios reacts to losing BBC commentary role

Kyrgios joined the BBC broadcast team for Wimbledon last year, but has not been invited back on this occasion after widespread criticism.

He took on the gig one year after charges of assaulting former girlfriend Chiara Passari were dismissed by a Canberra court.

The Australian had entered a guilty plea before Magistrate Beth Campbell decided no conviction should be recorded.

"I know I’m a great commentator," Kyrgios told The Guardian.

"All I’ve done for 20 years is play, study and breathe this sport.

"I also think tennis needs commentators who say things that not everyone says."

What is Nick Kyrgios' record at Wimbledon?

Kyrgios had a memorable Wimbledon debut, defeating Rafael Nadal en route to reaching the quarter-finals in 2014.

He achieved some good results in the following years, but couldn't make the next step.

Then, in 2022, he achieved a breakthrough, reaching the final in an impressive run at the All England Club.

Nick Kyrgios' last Wimbledon match and result

It was a career-best tournament for Kyrgios last time out at Wimbledon in 2022, capped off by a blockbuster decider against Novak Djokovic.

Djokovic ultimately secured his 21st grand slam and a seventh Wimbledon title by beating Kyrgios 4-6 6-3 6-4 7-6 (3) in the men's singles final.

The Serbian had to come from a set down to overcome the Australian, who was playing in his first-ever singles grand slam final.

Djokovic hadn't even taken a set off Kyrgios in their previous two meetings, but the No.1 seed stood tallest on Centre Court.
