The Australian withdrew from a planned appearance in the mixed doubles alongside Naomi Osaka at Flushing Meadows and has now withdrawn from the singles, with a lucky loser from the final round of qualifying taking his place.
Kygrios has not played in the US Open since reaching the quarter-finals in 2022 and missed all the Grand Slam tournaments the following two years because of a knee injury followed by wrist surgery.
Although he returned at the Australian Open in January, it was clear his wrist was still an issue and he has played just five singles matches this season.
The 30-year-old's career was put in jeopardy by a torn ligament in his wrist in 2023, which required surgery and kept him out for a year and a half.
