"All my tests are negative" says Kyrgios after experiencing flu-like symptoms

Nick Kyrgios was supposed to play this week in Australia yet the Australian opted not to after not feeling well for a few days. The decision was made public via. a statement posted by the Australian Open Twitter Page in which Kyrgios explained how he has been feeling. He said:

"I'm really sorry that I've had to pull out from this Melbourne Summer Set event. I have been feeling run down and unwell for 4 days. I have had several Covid tests over the last few days which all came back negative."

The good news for Kyrgios is that all his tests have come back negative which means he will be able to compete next week and he intends to do so. His statement further read:

"I don't feel 100% so I need to take this week to be ready for Sydney next week. I was really looking forward to experiencing the best fans in the world here at home! I can't wait to get back out there and see you all."

Kyrgios shoed a lot of entusiasm leading up to these events explaining that he is ready to play again:

"I feel good. A friend of mine, Dimi, has been working me out in the gym and I’ve had a few guys down from different parts of Australia hit with me over the last couple of months. I’m happy, I look forward to the summer in Australia and fingers crossed it all goes smoothly for everyone involved."
