Kyrgios Withdraws From Halle Due To Injury

Nick Kyrgios has withdrawn from the Terra Wortmann Open in Halle due to an ongoing issue with his left knee.

The 28-year-old Australian made his comeback to the ATP Tour in Stuttgart last week after he had surgery to repair a small tear in his left lateral meniscus in January. He complained of inhibited movement caused by his knee during his first-round defeat to Wu Yibing, however, and the problem has now forced Kyrgios’ withdrawal from the ATP 500 in Halle.

Kyrgios enjoyed the best season of his career in 2022, when he racked up a 37-10 record, including a Tour-leading 12 wins on grass. That tally included his run to a maiden major final at Wimbledon.

Kyrgios’ place in the Halle draw has been taken by Aslan Karatsev. The lucky loser, who reached his maiden ATP Masters 1000 semi-final as a qualifier in May in Madrid, will take on Lorenzo Sonego in the first round in Germany.
