Australian Open chief Craig Tiley expressed optimism on Thursday about Nick Kyrgios's comeback, predicting the Australian tennis star's presence at next January's season-opening Grand Slam. Kyrgios has been sidelined for nearly two years, grappling with knee, foot, and wrist injuries, and skipped the Australian Open earlier this year.

In his absence, Kyrgios has ventured into television broadcasting, yet recent social media updates suggest a renewed focus on relaunching his tennis career. 'Nick will be back,' Tiley assured viewers on Australia's Channel Nine TV, noting the player's ongoing practice and preparation for the summer tournament.

The 29-year-old, known for his electrifying play, last made it to the Australian Open quarter-finals in 2015. Despite injury challenges, he reached notable rounds at Wimbledon and the U.S. Open recently. Tiley hinted that while uncertainties remain, anticipation is high for Kyrgios's comeback at Melbourne Park.
