(Reuters) - Nick Kyrgios said he is "thankful" to Andy Murray for looking out for him after he spotted signs of self-harm on the Australian's body.

The 28-year-old has previously opened up about the mental health struggles he has battled throughout his career and in June revealed in a Netflix documentary he had spent time in a psychiatric hospital after losing at Wimbledon in 2019.
