Kyrgios to Miss Rest of Asian Swing with Collarbone Injury

The injury that forced Nick Kyrgios out of last weekend’s Laver Cup has now ended the Aussie’s Asian swing. The 27th-ranked Aussie says that a collarbone injury has forced him to take some time off tour.

“Unfortunately a collarbone injury I sustained during Laver Cup has escalated and has forced me to pull out of the Asian swing,” Kyrgios wrote on social media. “I’ll be heading back to Australia to rest.”It isn’t yet clear when Kyrgios, who owns a 21-14 record on the season with two titles, will return to the tour. ]]>
