Kyrgios, whose injury concerned a cyst growing in his meniscus, is now expected to miss three to four weeks.
The target for a return could see him back on the court at Indian Wells, which starts 8 March.
Kyrgios will be a serious contender for the tournaments on the east coast of the United States, with Miami following on 22 March before attention turns to clay and the Monte-Carlo Masters on 9 April in preparation for the French Open on 28 May.

“Then going into this event as one of the favourites, it’s brutal. All I can do now is just look forward, do what I need to do and come back.”
