Watch: Kyrgios Makes Magic Before U.S. Open Departure



Before Nick Kyrgios unceremoniously departed from the draw with an aggravated hip on Day 6, he did produce one of the most magical shots of the tournament. Was it as good as Rafael Nadal’s ‘tweener lob on Day 5? Hell no, but this bit of artistry from Kyrgios was sublime. Too bad he wasn’t able to stick around and finish out the match.

Kyrgios said he injured the hip in a lead-up training block, prior to the U.S. Open. He tried to manage it as best he could in his first three rounds but he hit the wall on Saturday night.

“My physio has been helping me all week. I've been trying to fix it all week,” he said. “But it's the whole year leading up to it with the whole schedule. I got to take more time and be more diligent with, you know, gym and everything so this doesn't happen to me.”
