Overview
- Alcaraz announced on Thursday that he will miss both Roland Garros and Wimbledon because of a right‑wrist injury first sustained at the Barcelona Open.
- Media reports have suggested tenosynovitis while Rafael Nadal used the word “break” when describing the injury, and Alcaraz’s team has given no official medical diagnosis.
- The player is being managed conservatively with no return date, and Nadal publicly said he expects Alcaraz to “recover 100%” based on his own similar wrist problems in 2014 and 2016.
- Analysts warn the missed events will cost large ATP points, with reported estimates of roughly 1,000 points from Rome, about 2,000 from Roland Garros and thousands more from grass results.
- Outlets say a return could be aimed at the North American hard‑court swing or the US Open but that such targets are speculative and depend on how the wrist responds to treatment.
