The New York Open news is coming in fast with updates about the participants involved. In some bad news, Nick Kyrgios has pulled out of the event due to a shoulder injury. The ATP 250 event which begins on February 10, has $719,320 on offer as the total prize money.

The champion will earn $120,635 alongside the 250 ATP points.

The state of New York is known to pull in huge crowds for tennis matches. This year’s New York Open will be no different with many top players participating in the event. We take a look at the updated players list as some players dropped out and others came in.

Nick Kyrgios drops out

Nick Kyrgios, who is a huge entertainer in tennis has dropped out of the New York Open event. This is a disappointing update for fans. Kyrgios is notorious for his antics on the tennis court, which the crowd will not get to see. Unfortunately, Nick’s injury has played spoilsport this time.

Marcos Giron, a New York native will play in his stead. So perhaps the fans are fine with it since they get to see and cheer for one of their own.
