Nick Kyrgios has again discussed the end of his playing career, saying the demands of the tennis tour along with his party lifestyle are taking a toll.

Kyrgios, 28, has often complained about the rigours of travelling and has conceded he only started to put real time into training in recent years.

The Australian has also been known for his party lifestyle, especially in the earlier years of his playing career, which he admits has had an impact on his body and his career.

At a time when superstars Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic have continued their careers well into their 30s, Kyrgios said there’s no way that’s in his future.

“No f**king chance. No way. Bro, there’s no chance I’m playing until 33,” Kyrgios said at the Ultimate Tennis Show in Los Angeles when asked if he had five years left in tennis.

“Kyrgios playing until 33 is insane! I’m not playing until 33.

“Nah, I promise you, when I’m gone, you’ll never see me again.”

Kyrgios has played just one official match in 2023, a first-round defeat to China’s Yibing Wu on grass in Stuttgart last month, due to a series of injuries.

Kyrgios was then forced to pull out of Wimbledon with a wrist complaint.

The Canberran reinforced his issues with the demands of the ATP Tour.

“The schedule is out of control,” he said. “I’m getting old. I’m getting old.

“Twenty-eight. Yeah. But all the drinking and partying, I’m like 57.”

Despite his lack of on-court activity, Kyrgios is rarely out of the news.

He received widespread publicity for putting his new back tattoo on social media this week.

The world No. 35 has often talked about the end of his career, stating a number of times that he would have retired had he beaten Djokovic in last year’s Wimbledon final.

Speaking in Los Angeles, he said he might even remain in tennis once he has retired from playing.

“I think I might just coach,” he said. “Coach Foe (Frances Tiafoe) full-time. That would be sick.”
