Nick Kyrgios confirmed he will play at the 2023 French Open despite previously claiming that he won't ever take part again.
Nick Kyrgios
has revealed that he will end his five-year snub of the French Open,
all in the name of love. The current world No 94 has not played the
clay-court Major since 2017 and has already ruled himself out of the
entire European clay swing this year, playing his first and last
tournament on the surface in Houston this week.
While speaking about his decision to play just one event in the United States before snubbing the other clay events in Europe, the former world No 13 announced that he would finally be making his return to the French Open in 2023, all so his girlfriend Costeen Hatzi could "see Paris".
He said:
"This will be my only clay tournament of the year. Next
year I am going to go to Paris, I’m announcing that now. I’m going to
the French Open. Breaking news. Yeah, I haven’t played that in four
years so yeah I’ll be back next year. My girlfriend just wants to see Paris. So yeah. I mean I’ll just play the French Open as well."
After competing in Houston Kyrgios will fly home to Australia to rest up and prepare for the grass season.

- Either Lena has a chronic internal ailment (i.e., colitis, enteritis, Crohn's, or some type of lower abdomen issue) -- or she is once again dealing with 'Vukovitis'. Mental stress can indeed cause lower body pains. No matter... whatever is truly going on sucks. "Virus" excuse is getting a bit old -- and often -- at this point.

- Vukov is doing this to Lena... AGAIN!!!!! WTA's autonomous collective should be dismantled for allowing Vukov to re-emerge from his hand-slapping suspension.

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!!

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
