<\/p>\nTennis fans are still talking about Nick Kyrgios despite his absence from the court after he shared an intimate picture of himself licking his girlfriend\u2019s neck.<\/p>\n
The Australian star\u2019s future remains up in the air after he revealed earlier in the year he was considering retirement at just 28 due to the effects of his drinking and partying leaving him feeling \u2018like a 57-year-old\u2019. <\/p>\n
Kyrgios was forced to pull out of both the Australian Open and Wimbledon on the eve of both of the tournament\u2019s starts due to injury but it seems that the controversial Aussie is not willing to give up his partying antics after cropping up in a Los Angeles nightclub.<\/p>\n

The former Wimbledon finalist bizarrely had someone else take the picture of him tasting Costeen\u2019s neck, as his lover wore a huge smile and held his neck in scenes that must\u2019ve been pretty unsettling to fellow clubbers. When shared by Kyrgios on Instagram, even fellow tennis star Thanasi Kokkinakis thought it was a bit much, commenting: \u201cKeep it pg pls.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kyrgios\u2019 post, which was captioned: \u201cAnd what? Love is a crazy thing? Lol we all try to find it, don\u2019t lie\u2026\u2026\u201d got mixed reactions from his fans, though given his caption and reputation, we doubt he cares too much.<\/p>\n

One comment read: \u201cYou\u2019re so cringe mate. Get back on the court.\u201d A second said: \u201cShould be playing Davis Cup mate,\u201d whilst another questioned why he wasn\u2019t back on the court, saying: \u201cYes king but also maybe play some tennis soon.\u201d With a fourth simply reacting: \u201cWhat in the f***\u201d<\/p>\n

Kyrgios has played just one singles match in 2023 after pulling out of all four grand slams due to a lingering knee injury and a torn ligament in his wrist which he sustained ahead of Wimbledon. As a result, his world ranking has slid to 192, but Australian Open boss Craig Tiley did suggest he would be handed a wildcard if he was to return at the beginning of 2024.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cWe have spoken to Nick, and he obviously wants to do the best he possibly can to give him the best chance to play in January … Nick's position will be determined closer to the event.\u201d<\/p>\n
