MELBOURNE， Jan. 15 (Xinhua) -- The health of Australia's Nick Kyrgios remains under question after the 14th seed ended a practice session early on Sunday， a blow to the host nation's chances of winning their home grand slam.
Clouds have surrounded Kyrgios all summer， struggling with a knee injury for which the pain is managed by cortisone patches， though new， possibly related issues have come to light.
"I cannot move my back or my hamstring，" Kyrgios said to his practice opponent on Sunday.
"(I'm) serving in the middle of the net."
The two were in a practice tie breaker， of which his opponent won， causing Kyrgios to toss his racket onto the ground. Soon after， the group of four players - which included Australian up and comer Jordan Thompson - packed up and left.
Xinhua reporter noted however Kyrgios had not warmed up for the scrimmage， apart from practice serves when the media group arrived， instead just wanting to "get on with it" .
Kyrgios told reporters on Saturday the "four or five" treatments he had on his knee were "massive improvements" and that it was "feeling really good"， lifting his own Australian Open campaign expectations despite a relatively sedate lead up.
"I've never been a player to play many tournaments before a Grand Slam， I like to come in pretty fresh，" Kyrgios said.
"So my expectations are high， I still feel like I can do some major damage and get to the second week and really cause some upsets."
The injury concerns are a blow for Australia's chances of keeping the Australian Open trophy on home soil， with the 14th seed the host's highest ranked player， followed by 27th seed Bernard Tomic as the next best ranked men's， while Samantha Stosur - who hasn't won a match in five months - at 18 in the women's draw.
Australia haven't held the Norman Brookes Challenge Cup aloft since Mark Edmonson defeated fellow compatriot John Newcombe in 1976. Australia's Chris O' Neill was the last female champion to lift the Daphne Akhurst Memorial Cup on home soil in 1978.
"Obviously I'd love (to hold the trophy)" at the end of the tournament， Stosur， a former U.S. Open champion， told reporters on Sunday in response to being asked if it was the 15th time lucky for her to win the Australian Open.
"I guess we'll see what happens after the first round， then if I' m here for the second one we'll talk about it then， then the third， the fourth，" Stosur said.
"Look， everybody would like to be in that position by the end of the tournament."
Australia's best chance to regain the title was when Leyton Hewitt was downed in four sets by Russia's Marat Safin in 2005， though once play begins on Monday， anything could happen.
SEOUL Nike Vapormax Off White Black UK Sale , Nov. 2 (Xinhua) -- Defense chiefs of South Korea and the United States agreed on Monday to a joint operation plan against nuclear and missile threats from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK).
U.S. Defense Secretary Ashton Carter, who arrived in Seoul Sunday for a two-day visit, held the 47th round of the Security Consultative Meeting (SCM) Nike Vapormax Off White White UK Sale , the annual defense ministers' meeting between Seoul and Washington, with his South Korean counterpart Han Min-Koo at Seoul's defense ministry headquarters.
The talks resulted in a 16-point joint statement, which approved the so-called "4D operation plan" to detect Nike Vapormax Off White Black White UK Sale , track and destroy the DPRK's ballistic missiles mounted with nuclear or biochemical warheads.
The 4D plan for joint military operations and exercises, which stands for Detect, Disrupt Nike Air Max 95 Womens UK Sale , Destroy and Defense, will reportedly be reflected in the "Operation Plan 5015" of the U.S.-South Korea combined forces that will replace the former "Operation Plan 5027" to defend South Korea from possible DPRK missile threats.
The joint anti-missile strategy means a concept of closely watching moves in the DPRK's nuclear and missile bases with U.S. surveillance assets, like military satellites and high-altitude unmanned aerial vehicles Nike Air Max 95 Mens UK Sale , to strike the targets in the DPRK in case of emergency with precision-striking weapons of both Seoul and Washington.
The two defense ministers also sent a warning to the DPRK, saying that the two allies will not allow any type of invasions or military provocations from the DPRK, according to the joint statement.
The statement said that Seoul and Washington will make concerted efforts to show off their joint resolute will to deter DPRK provocations Nike Air Max 95 UK Sale , expressing a "serious worry" about the DPRK's recent indication of pushing forward with the test-firing of a long-range rocket and its fourth nuclear test.
Pyongyang has hinted that it will launch a satellite for the Earth observation.
Citing the DPRK's test-launch on May 8 of a submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM), the statement said that it was a clear violation of UN Security Council resolutions.
The statement mentioned the escalated tensions on the Korean Peninsula, caused by landmine explosions in early August that maimed two South Korean soldiers on patrol in the demilitarized zone Nike Air Max 97 Summit White UK Sale , saying that the defense chiefs reiterated the need for joint war games between the two allies given the security environment coming from the incident.
The landmine blasts, for which Seoul blamed Pyongyang, were followed by a rare exchange of artillery fire across the inter-Korean border Nike Air Max 97 Undefeated UK Sale , pushing the peninsula to the brink of armed conflict.
The tensions were eased in late August after marathons talks between Seoul and Pyongyang, leading to a rare reunion of families separated by the 1950-53 Korean War in the DPRK's Mount Kumgang resort in October.
Meanwhile, Carter and Han approved the conditions-based transfer of Washington's wartime operational control of South Korean forces to Seoul. The Pentagon chief told a press conference that the United States will return the wartime command when South Korea has a complete capability of operat.
