The explosive Kyrgios underwent an arthroscopic surgery to clean up his lateral meniscus and remove a paralabral cyst in the final week of January and is still not ready to compete.
The 28-year-old Aussie, who scored a combined 61 victories in 2022 (37 singles and 24 doubles wins), has not played Roland Garros since his 2017 second-round loss to Kevin Anderon. Overall, Kyrgios owns a 5-5 lifetime record at the French Open.
“It’s not looking likely,” Kyrgios’ agent Daniel Horsfall told the Sydney Morning Herald about his chances of a clay return. “We are trying everything we can to have Nick ready on court as soon as possible.”
