"I hope to see you back as soon as possible" - Jannik Sinner eager for Nick Kyrgios' return to the men's tour

Nick Kyrgios and Jannik Sinner interact after a match in 2022

Reigning Australian Open champion Jannik Sinner is hoping to see Nick Kyrgios back in action on the men's tour.

Kyrgios has only played one competitive match in the last 16 months. He participated at the 2023 Stuttgart Open but struggled to make a successful return due to a lack of match fitness.

The 28-year-old decided to extend his spell on the sidelines to rehabilitate but has tried to stay close to tennis. He recently worked as a commentator at the Australian Open where he not only covered all the action from the commentators box but also interviewed fellow players in action after their matches.

While interacting with Jannik Sinner after the youngster's astounding win over Daniil Medvedev in the finals, Kyrgios was informed by the Italian that he was truly missed on the men's tour. Sinner also told Kyrgios that his unique style of play and demeanor on the tennis court is unlike any other player on the men's tour.

"I think, what's for sure, everyone is missing you, You are this kind of player you don't see around so often. Your game style, your way how to behave on court, and those kind of things, you are different, no? And this kind of player we need,” Sinner said.

"I hope you are getting back - I'm missing you. It was a great emotion to see you after my second-round match, so I hope to see you back as soon as possible,” he added.
