Nick Kyrgios is finishing his regular season in a week's time, withdrawing from scheduled events at Tokyo, Stockholm and Vienna.

The 19-year-old Australian wants to take some time away from the tour following his breakthrough season, when he defeated Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon and reached the Top 60.

"I've pulled out of the other tournaments because I'm emotionally spent," the 51st-ranked Kyrgios said. "Physically I've probably only got enough left for one more tournament. I just want to sit back and take a break from everything."

He will play in the International Tennis Premier League (ITPL) during the off season before getting ready for the Australian hard court season, where he will be one of the biggest attractions.
