"Heartbroken about the U.S. Open. Will be back ... My wrist is not ready yet to compete," Kyrgios, who has played only one ATP match all season, wrote on Instagram.

The US Tennis Association announced Kyrgios' withdrawal along with Germany's Jan-Lennard Struff. The association has not gave specific reason immediately for his absence. The US Open 2023 starts on 28 August. The brackets will be determined on Aug. 24.

At the U.S. Open a year ago, Kyrgios made his deepest run at Flushing Meadows by making it to the quarterfinals. He eliminated reigning champion and No. 1-seeded Daniil Medvedev in the fourth round, before losing in five sets to Karen Khachanov.

Nick Kyrgios has only played one official singles match all season, in Stuttgart, Germany, in June, which he lost. Shortly thereafter, he withdrew from Wimbledon 2023, citing a wrist injury. Earlier, the 28-year-old had missed the Australian Open in early 2023 due to a left knee injury, after which he underwent arthroscopic knee surgery. After that, he also missed the French Open. Kyrgios's ATP ranking has declined due to his continuous absence from tennis and he is currently holding No. 92 ranking.

Hours before Kyrgios withdrew from Wimbledon in early July, he was asked at a pre-tournament news conference whether he missed tennis during all of the time away. It was at the All England Club in 2022 that Kyrgios turned in his best run at one of the sport's four most important events, finishing as the runner-up to Novak Djokovic. Meanwhile, two Argentine players Facundo Diaz Acosta and Diego Schwartzman can replace him in the US Open 2023.
