Nick Kyrgios has landed a shock new job working for The Tennis Channel as a commentator and analyst during the

Turin ATP finals next week. The Aussie’s on-court career is at a standstill while he struggles on the sidelines with

knee and wrist injuries.

After finishing as the runner-up to Novak Djokovic in the 2022 Wimbledon final the 28-year-old missed this year’s

Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and US Open. Kyrgios is expected to return to action at the back end of

the year, or sometime in January, but that won’t be the next time he graces tennis fans’ screens as a statement from

the Tennis Channel reveals.

“Nick Kyrgios, whose electric style of play and straight-to-the-point conversational approach have endeared him to

millions of fans around the world, is joining Tennis Channel as an analyst during its coverage of the ATP Finals

November 12-19,” the press release began.

“It will be Kyrgios’ first time working with the network, and it will happen during the most exclusive event in men’s

tennis, with just the top-eight singles players and doubles teams qualifying for the event based on points earned

during the 2023 season.”

The new role suggests Kyrgios may be considering his next steps after recently revealing that he hasn’t got much time

left in the sport due to the worsening condition of his body after “all the drinking and partying” he has done during

his wild career. “No f***ing chance. No way. Bro, there’s no chance I’m playing until 33,” said Kyrgios last month

when asked whether he is hoping to continue his career deep into his thirties like Djokovic.

“Kyrgios playing until 33 is insane. I’m not playing until 33. Nah, I promise you, when I’m gone, you’ll never see me

again. The schedule is out of control. I’m getting old, I’m getting old. Twenty-eight, yeah – but all the drinking and

partying, I’m like 57.
