Carlos Alcaraz, the Spanish tennis star and reigning champion of the French Open, has announced his withdrawal from this year's tournament due to a wrist injury. The injury occurred during his first-round match at the Barcelona Open, where he attempted to compete shortly after losing in the Monte Carlo Masters final to Jannik Sinner. In a statement on social media, Alcaraz emphasized the need for caution and stated that he will not participate in the upcoming Rome Masters or the French Open while he evaluates his recovery. Alcaraz, who has won the French Open for the past two years, was a favorite to secure his third consecutive title in Paris. He remains optimistic about his return to the sport, stating, “This is a difficult time for me, but I am sure we will come out of it stronger.”
