Alcaraz Withdraws From Wimbledon and Queen’s With Persistent Wrist Injury

The decision underscores a cautious recovery that boosts Jannik Sinner’s standing for the summer.

Overview

  • Carlos Alcaraz said Tuesday on social media that he is pulling out of Queen’s and Wimbledon because his right wrist is not ready to compete.
  • He first injured the wrist at the Barcelona Open in April and then skipped Madrid, Rome and the French Open.
  • His absence takes a marquee name out of the grass swing and removes a two-time champion from the Wimbledon field.
  • Wimbledon posted an official "We’ll miss you, Carlos Alcaraz" message in response to his announcement.
  • Several outlets point to the Canadian Open in July as a possible return, though no date or medical clearance has been set.
