Kyrgios confirms his comeback: "Fire up the crowd".
Nick Kyrgios isn't done with tennis yet.
After declaring his immense ambitions for his return to the Tour, even going so far as to declare his desire to win a Major title, the Australian has confirmed his imminent return to business.
Injured and sidelined for almost two years, Kyrgios seems to have rediscovered his desire and determination.
He recently confirmed his return to official competition, in front of his home crowd, at the forthcoming Australian Open: "I'll be playing the Australian Open this summer.
I miss playing in front of my home crowd. My injury was brutal.
The surgeon explained to me that I probably wouldn't be able to play again.
But in my head, I told myself that I was going to try and make another two or three years of my career.
I just want to get out there, fire up the crowd and play in front of my own country."
