Overview
- Patrick Mouratoglou said photos of Carlos Alcaraz in a wrist splint make it hard to see him playing at Roland Garros.
- Carlos Alcaraz cut short his Barcelona campaign with a right‑wrist issue and has since withdrawn from the Madrid Open and the Italian Open while awaiting further tests.
- Brad Gilbert estimated at least three weeks out and said the team would err on caution, as CoCo Vandeweghe backed skipping Paris if he is not fully fit.
- Greg Rusedski and former coach Juan Carlos Ferrero urged a lighter schedule, including dropping exhibitions and not rushing from Monte Carlo to Barcelona, to lower injury risk.
- If he sits out Paris as the defending champion, he would give up key ranking points to Jannik Sinner, though last year he recovered from a similar spring problem to win Rome and then Roland Garros.
