Kyrgios is not participating in the tournament
This new competition has been so much debated In Sydney, Brisbane as Perth It caused outrage among the locals when they had the number one Nick Kyrgios ready for a feat with a great team in both boys and girls. However, the organization of the tournament confirmed that the Australian will not be in the competition. He doesn’t compete in the format he usually likes because he’s always championed this type of argument.
Captains Lleyton Hewitt and Sam Stosur have not said they have another tennis player in the chamber. While Nick is the team’s number one, now Alex De Minaur competes as the best male player in the country and Jason Kubler comes in as number two. They have seven players to begin with, as they have four women and, in addition to these two boys, the great doubles player John Peers.
Kyrgios’ absence means he will lose much of his options to reach the group stage against Spain and Great Britain. Nick as number one and De Miñaur as number two allowed them to score a lot of points, but this time the situation is complicated. It has been the month of December, which has been used by almost everyone as a very busy pre-season, arguing various shows where a lot of money has been pocketed. Let’s see how long Nick Kyrgios’ defeat at the United Cup can last and see if he can be ready for the Adelaide tournament in the second week of the year, where he is registered.
