Defending champion Alcaraz to miss French Open

Müsabaka gündeminden önemli bir haber: Defending champion Alcaraz to miss French Open By Bobbie Jackson Sport journalist Published 24 April 2026, 17:02 BST 21 Comments Updated Just now Two-time defending champion Carlos Alcaraz says he will miss next month's French Open because of an ongoing wrist injury. The world number two withdrew from last week's Barcelona Open after sustaining an injury to his right wrist in his first-round victory.

Alcaraz, 22, had tests to determine the severity of the issue and has subsequently pulled out of the Italian Open and French Open - both played on clay courts. "After the results of the tests carried out today, we have decided that the most prudent thing to do is to be cautious and not participate in Rome or Roland Garros, while we assess the situation to determine when we can return to the court," Alcaraz posted on Instagram.

"This is a difficult time for me, but I am sure we will come out of this stronger. " Alcaraz began the year by winning his first Australian Open title and would have been looking to kick on further, as he often does when the clay season gets under way.

The Spaniard won clay-court titles in Monte Carlo, Rome and Roland Garros last season, and reached the final in Barcelona. He lost the world number one ranking to long-term rival Jannik Sinner this month after losing to him in the Monte Carlo final, and could lose significant ground to the Italian in the rankings while sidelined.
