Kyrgios has only participated in one ATP Tour match this year, which he lost in June in Stuttgart to Yibing Wu, the 64th-ranked player in China.

He then continued by saying I couldn't deal with one more surgery for max 1 or 2 years I would be playing and then I was done.

2019 was a very difficult year of my life where I just wanted to give up, he continued.
