Kokkinakis Will Be Out of the Circuit for Some Time

Breaking news on the path of Thanasi Kokkinakis. Bad news, to be precise. At this stage, the Australian's relationship with injuries has reached such a height that it is not surprising to see him once again lying on a hospital stretcher recounting his latest operation. That's exactly what has happened, with Thanasi continuing to fight against his own body in search of his best self. At 28 years old, the Adelaide native will have to take a break until he completes rehabilitation following the intervention on his arm, a timeline that even the player himself does not know. It's been tough luck in the career of the Oceanic tennis player, whom we hope to see back on the courts galloping as soon as possible.

Kokkinakis and the drama of his poorly healed injury: "I can't compete like this, it's heartbreaking"

Thanasi Kokkinakis fought to exhaustion in his match against Draper at the Australian Open 2025, not only against his opponent but above all against himself. The Australian has been dealing with a serious injury to his right pectoral muscle that has been preventing him from playing pain-free for a long time.

"I've taken a million painkillers to try to improve this, but it's clear that I can't continue like this. I have to make decisions because it's heartbreaking to see how I haven't been able to compete well for years because of this. Honestly, I think it's limiting my ability to achieve goals a lot. I don't even think I can lift my arm tomorrow. Every time I play a couple of matches in a row, it gets worse. I have a very serious tear in the muscle," he concluded.

Kokkinakis: "I play exhibitions because they allow me to earn a living with tennis"

Thanasi Kokkinakis went through a lot to defeat Safiullin in the first round of the 2025 Australian Open, having to overcome physical discomfort in his left leg, a result of accumulated tension and fatigue. "Playing at home is very special. It gives us Australians a great advantage, but it also creates a lot of pressure. I could hardly sleep last night, I was very anxious. It's amazing to have won today; I'm proud of my fighting spirit, but I definitely need to check my injury," he said before being asked why he had played so many exhibition tournaments.

"I've spent a lot of time off the courts due to injuries, and what I'm looking for is to make a living. Reaching semis in an ATP 250 tournament doesn't give you the money you make from playing an exhibition, that's why I play them. I also compete in the Davis Cup representing Australia, something no one highlights," he said visibly upset.

Kokkinakis will be a last-minute doubt: "I don't know how I will be on Monday"

Several players are arriving cautiously at this 2025 Australian Open, including Thanasi Kokkinakis. The Australian is no stranger to injuries and discomfort, not even at the beginning of the season. After withdrawing in Adelaide, the question is how prepared he is for Melbourne. The answer? Not even he is sure.

“Honestly, I've been feeling better. I'm quite frustrated, retiring last week wasn't easy, I'm not sure how I'll be on Monday, I still have things to work on. I'll leave it at that, I don't know what else to say, it's a very bad feeling when you do everything you can to prepare for the most important event. When things don't work out afterwards, it's disappointing. But well, no one cares how you arrive, you have to go out and play and see what you can do,” he acknowledged this Saturday on Media Day.

ATP Adelaide 2025: Paul and Auger-Aliassime deliver, Kokkinakis becomes local hero

Great day of tennis that has been experienced this Wednesday in the ATP 250 Adelaide 2025, with the presentation of some of the title favorites. Tommy Paul (6-4 3-6 6-3 against Guinard) and Félix Auger-Aliassime (1-6 6-4 7-5 against Cazaux) lived up to their favoritism, a feat that Shapovalov did not achieve, defeated by Giron with a score of 7-5 6-2. Miomir Kecmanovic, Rinky Hijikata, and Benjamin Bonzi were other winners of a day in which the great protagonist was Thanasi Kokkinakis, victorious against Tomás Martín Etcheverry by 7-5 4-7 7-6 (4), in the highlight match of the day.
