Naomi Osaka, Nick Kyrgios, Andy Murray to play Brisbane International 2024

[vokazu]

This is good news, at least we have some well known names to play at Brisbane International. Too bad the top player chooses to play United Cup. I hope other big guns will play in Brisbane!

Edit: Rune and Dimitrov will play too.

Kyrgios was also entered into Wimbledon 5 months ago. I wouldn’t count on him actually playing too much

 

[Bill Lobsalot]

Is this a Senior Tour event?

 

[Zardoz7/12]

If Kyrgios and Osaka are motivated their rankings will rise quickly without the need of wildcards by the 2nd half of next season.

Murray has many points to defend from now till Wimbledon, if he doesn't defend them I would suspect retirement is a viable option.

Of course, it's not a junior event.

anyone’s guess.. kyrgios is obviously bad at rehabbing

 

[Mainad]

Andy should avoid entering any event that has De Minaur in the draw.

 

[TimHenmanATG]

It should also be noted, for anyone unaware, that the city of Brisbane has been awarded the 2032 Olympics.

There must be quite a buzz around QLD.

 

[vokazu]

Andy should avoid entering any event that has De Minaur in the draw.

De Minaur will play in United Cup, not ATP 250 Brisbane.

Azarenka always likes to play in Brisbane. A few years ago when she was practicing in Brisbane, some girls who were watching were copying her grunts and people laughed at it.

3 Finnish players.

Lol

 

[Robert F]

Unfortunately, 3 players I enjoyed watching play that took things too far that I almost dread seeing them play now.

 

[Bartelby]

Millman is making his farewell event at the AO so is he playing Brisbane?

 

[Mainad]

De Minaur will play in United Cup, not ATP 250 Brisbane.

That's a relief!

Ok. Well, I guess I won't be watching Brisbane next year.

 

[JoshDragon]

If I'm feeling motivated, maybe I'll show up and win Brisbane next year.

 

[Fabresque]

Who cares, who cares, who cares.

I forgot Osaka even existed until someone mentioned she’d return in 2024. The games moved on. Nicholas isn’t even ranked. And Murray has been trying for years to come back and has done nothing.

 

[AM75]

How come Osaka wants to play again? Is she a masochist to come back to the torturous sport that caused her so much "mental pain" and distress?

 

[DSH]

She needs matches as emotional therapy.

[glenWs]

Anyone know if or when Muguruza might return to tennis?

This is good news, at least we have some well known names to play at Brisbane International. Too bad the top player chooses to play United Cup. I hope other big guns will play in Brisbane!

[maciej84]

@vokazu that looks like a really sophisticated "Nadal+Brisbane" ticket scam. You're so lucky you at least saw him practise before he pulls out.
