Overview
- Carlos Alcaraz, who disclosed Friday's test results, said he will skip the Rome Masters and Roland Garros to be cautious on medical advice.
- The injury surfaced in Barcelona against Otto Virtanen, after which he withdrew from the next match and later pulled out of the Madrid Masters.
- Reports describe tendon inflammation in his right wrist with some cartilage involvement, and he has been wearing a splint to immobilize the area.
- He gave no return date as his team monitors recovery, with the grass-court swing at Queen’s and Wimbledon now the tentative target.
- Missing Rome and Paris will cost about 3,000 ATP points and strengthens Jannik Sinner’s grip on No. 1, with many analysts installing him as the Roland Garros favorite.
