Nick Kyrgios has revealed he was left feeling 'emotional' earlier this week after a new injury threw serious doubts over his hopes of a much-anticipated comeback at his home Grand Slam. It's been a long and gruelling road back to this point for the Australian tennis star, who has jumped through hoops in order to continue to play at the top level after a spate of injuries put his career on hold.

But in agonising circumstances, the 29-year-old announced this week he was pulling out of a doubles exhibition match alongside Novak Djokovic after he had sustained a grade one strain in his abdomen. The seven-time ATP Tour winner is still yet to decide on whether he'll be ready to play next week, admitting he had been back in training testing the injury.

And understandably, a disheartened Kyrgios spoke of his frustrations over the new injury woe during the Rooftop at QT summer campaign event. 'Yeah, I mean it's hard, we play tennis at the end of the day because we love it,' Kyrgios told Daily Mail Australia.
