Nick Kyrgios has given the strongest indication yet he will be fit to play in the Australian Open, declaring his abdominal injury “manageable” two days out from the first grand slam of the year.

Kyrgios, who has been drawn to meet British world No.86 Jacob Fearnley in the first round, completed a light practice session at Melbourne Park on Jan. 10 morning.
