Nick Kyrgios admits he has probably played his last point at Wimbledon after losing on his SW19 comeback last night.
The Australian stopped short of announcing his retirement but said it was heartbreaking not to be able to produce his best tennis for his fans.
Kyrgios and doubles partner Alexander Bublik lost 6-3, 6-4 to Marcelo Arevalo and Mate Pavic yesterday.
“I’d probably say pretty confidently [this was] my last Wimbledon,” Kyrgios said.
“Towards the end, just looking around and taking everything in, it was tough.
“I just feel body-wise and everything, it’d be hard to see myself coming back here again and competing.”
Kyrgios isn’t ready to fully retire just yet but didn’t feel his body is up to the challenges of Grand Slam singles tennis.
“What’s the point at that point?” he said.
“You go from making finals of Grand Slams to struggling to play multiple singles matches, so who knows?”
He added: “I don’t know how much I have left to deal with everything every time I play.
“It’s too much. I can tell the fans want more but it’s heartbreaking to not be able to give it to them every single time.
“But the support out there was incredible.”
