Boss open

Tournament Director Cam Pearson: Nick Kyrgios has confirmed his long-awaited return to ATP Tour action at next month's Brisbane International, to be held from December 29 to January 5, 2025, ahead of the Australian Open.

The seven-time ATP Tour titlist Kyrgios, who has not played a professional ATP match since June 2023, has been hampered by wrist and foot injuries that have kept him sidelined for more than a year, having last contested a tour-level match at the Boss Open in Stuttgart in June 2023.

"The Brisbane International has always been a great event and I have had some amazing memories there, particularly when I won the event in 2018. I am feeling fit and healthy, and I am excited for my return to tennis following some time out of the sport," Kyrgios was quoted by tournament organisers.
