Nick Kyrgios is already starting to look beyond tennis. The Australian, who has faced numerous physical problems in recent years and has left his continuity on the professional circuit up in the air, has revealed that he has plans to become a professional in another sport when the time comes to hang up his racket.
The former World No. 13 has acknowledged in an interview with Tennishead that he would like to try his luck in golf. Kyrgios, who has publicly shown his passion for this sport and has participated in various related events, does not rule out attempting to compete at the highest level when his tennis career definitively comes to an end.
Nick Kyrgios and His Future Away from the Tennis Courts
The possibility of retirement seems increasingly closer for the Australian. Knee and wrist injuries have decisively influenced his career in recent years, leading to several surgeries. In 2026, Kyrgios returned to competition after a long absence, although his future remains uncertain.
The Australian reached the Wimbledon final in 2022 and rose to the rank of number 13 in the world, but his physical problems have prevented him from maintaining the necessary consistency to return to his best level. “I want to play golf professionally,” Kyrgios reportedly explained when discussing his future plans. The Australian is passionate about sports and has made it clear on more than one occasion that he cannot imagine himself completely detached from competition.
Meanwhile, his priority remains tennis. Kyrgios has returned to the circuit with the aim of regaining sensations and enjoying his final years as a professional, although doubts about his body and the demands of competition mean that each tournament could hold special significance. If retirement does indeed come, Nick Kyrgios may not stray too far from competition. His next challenge could be on a golf course.
