Kyrgios, 28, who has previously discussed his mental health struggles on social media and in interviews, has spent many months out with injuries since reaching the 2022 Wimbledon final, which he lost to Novak Djokovic.He returned to the elite tour this week at Stuttgart after seven months off, but lost in the first round.
In February, he apologised in an Australian court when he escaped conviction on a charge of common assault after pleading guilty to shoving a former girlfriend to the ground in 2021. His psychologist, Sam Borenstein, said in a written report and testimony that Kyrgios had suffered major depressive episodes around the time of the assault and had used alcohol and drugs to cope leading to impulsive and reckless behaviour.
