SYDNEY, June 14 (Reuters) - Nick Kyrgios will reveal in upcoming episodes of a Netflix documentary that he spent time in a psychiatric hospital after losing at Wimbledon in 2019, The Australian newspaper reported on Wednesday. The 28-year-old was knocked out by Rafael Nadal in the second round of the championships that year while wearing a white sleeve to cover up his right arm. "I was genuinely contemplating if I wanted to commit suicide," Kyrgios says in an episode of the documentary Break Point to be released later this month, according to the newspaper. "I lost at Wimbledon. I woke up and my dad was sitting on the bed, full-blown crying. That was the big wake-up call for me. I was like, okay, I can't keep doing this. I ended up in a psych ward in London to figure out my problems." Kyrgios wrote a lengthy Instagram post in February last year about his mental health struggles, at the end of which he said he was in a much better place. "I'm proud to say I've completely turned myself around and have a completely different outlook on everything, I don't take one moment for granted," he wrote. "I want you to be able to reach your full potential and smile. This life is beautiful." The Break Point episodes chronicle Kyrgios's run to last year's Wimbledon final with the highlight of his career so far prompting recollections of the 2019 nadir. "That pressure, having that all-eyes-on-you expectation, I couldn't deal with it. I hated the kind of person I was," he says. "I was drin...

The Australian was beaten 7-5, 6-3 by China’s Yibing Wu in the first round in Stuttgart, the match lasting just 68 minutes. While his serve was firing well, despite four double-faults, he appeared reluctant to chase balls around the court and by the end was visibly troubled by his knee. During the changeover after the third game of the second set Kyrgios could be overheard saying to his team, “I feel my knee every point. I can’t walk without pain.” He then put his head in his hands. The world No.25 soldiered on, and did not call for the trainer, but continued to look troubled and hobbled off after the match. At 64th in the world Wu was not an easy draw for the eighth seed, but it was Wu’s first senior match on grass — with his last competitive outing on the surface being in the juniors in 2017....
