Overview
- Carlos Alcaraz, who disclosed Tuesday on social media, will skip the entire grass season at Queen’s and Wimbledon because his right wrist is not ready to compete.
- He has been sidelined since injuring the wrist at the Barcelona Open on April 14, after earlier withdrawals from Madrid, Rome and the French Open.
- The All England Club publicly responded to his announcement, posting that they will miss the two-time champion at this year’s Championships.
- His absence removes a leading contender, boosts world No. 1 Jannik Sinner’s title odds, and likely increases Sinner’s rankings cushion over the No. 2 Spaniard.
- No return date is set, with media talk of a July Canadian Open comeback remaining unconfirmed as Alcaraz says rehabilitation continues.
