Nick Kyrgios pulls out of United Cup with ankle injury

MADRID, 28 Dic. (EUROPA PRESS) –

Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios will not finally participate in the United Cup, the new mixed team competition that his country hosts starting this Thursday, due to an ankle injury, as confirmed by the organizers.

In this way, Australia, which is included in the same group as Spain, loses some potential by not being able to count on its number one, also depriving the crowd of an always attractive show that could be seen in his crossover with Rafa Nadal. Alex de Minaur will take over, while Jason Kubler will be number two theorist.
