Nick Kyrgios has called for the physio while a set down in his fourth-round match against Brandon Nakashima. The Aussie has been touching his left shoulder and admitted it was “not good” after hitting a serve but did not receive treatment, instead asking for painkillers.
Kyrgios has been complaining about his left shoulder during his match against Nakashima, as the world No 40 was broken in the final game of the first set to lose it 6-4 to his American opponent. And the Aussie could be seen touching his shoulder and wincing more frequently early in the second.
The 27-year-old called the physio to court, who arrived after Kyrgios managed to break the world No 58 for a 3-1 lead in the second, but the Aussie did not take a medical time out and instead told the trainer: “I just needed some painkillers man.”
Earier in the set, the former world No 13 had muttered “Nah, it’s not good” to himself while BBC commentators admitted he looked like he was struggling with a physical issue.
