Former Australian Open: Former Australian Open director Paul McNamee has said the absence of Nick Kyrgios from the singles draw is unlikely to affect the tournament, adding that time is running out for the Aussie to have a run at a grand slam.

Last week, Kyrgios announced he would not be contesting the singles draw at this year’s Australian Open owing to his ongoing fitness struggles. Instead, he will be partnering Thanasi Kokkinakis in the doubles.

Kyrgios played only five matches in 2025 before ending his season in March. He eased back into competition with a series of exhibition matches in New York and Dubai last month, then received a wildcard for the Brisbane International, where he was ousted in the first round.
