Last year's Wimbledon runner-up Nick Kyrgios will not place any unfair expectations on himself, the Australian said on Sunday as he gears up for the Grand Slam with little preparation after a knee injury decimated the first half of his season.
He pulled out of tournaments in Halle and Mallorca and will head to the July 3-16 Championships with"some question marks" about his fitness. "Again, I'm not going to discredit the work I've put in for the last six months just trying to maintain my fitness, get back on court. I've been hitting with some really good players this week and my body is feeling okay.
Kyrgios, who lost to Novak Djokovic in the Wimbledon final last year, had previously played a singles match in October in Tokyo and pulled out of the Australian Open in January in the leadup to the tournament."I would have loved to get another match under my belt before Wimbledon. My body wasn't ready," said 30th seed Kyrgios, who meets David Goffin in the opening round on Monday.
