French Open: Nick Kyrgios knocked out of Roland Garros

Grief-stricken Nick Kyrgios has conceded his French Open hopes were all but cooked when his grandfather died in April.

Australia’s last man standing crashed out of the season’s second grand slam in Paris with a 5-7, 6-4, 6-1, 6-2 second-round loss to tough South African Kevin Anderson on Friday (AEST).

Kyrgios entered the tournament under a fitness cloud – and hip and shoulder niggles undoubtedly contributed to his demise as the 22-year-old coughed up an uncharacteristic nine double-faults in the four-set defeat.
