Get your Wimbledon on
It was something many Aussie tennis fans hoped for, but Nick Kyrgios has pulled out of Wimbledon with a wrist injury. The Canberran made the final last year, losing out to Novak Djokovic – and it was hoped the renegade roller coaster was on the cusp of realising his immense talent. But since then, it’s been nothing but injuries and trying to recover. “I am disappointed to say that I just didn’t have enough time to manage it before Wimbledon. I’ll be back, and, as always, I appreciate the support from all my fans,” he said. Alex de Minaur, Australia’s top-seeded hope at 15, and former great Todd Woodbridge likes his chances. “For a modern player, he is a fairly natural grass courter,” he said – which we think is a good thing… Nine Aussies – 7 men and 2 women – are having a crack in the tournament that kicked off overnight – and good luck, one and all.
