Carlos Alcaraz will miss Wimbledon as he continues to recover from a right wrist injury that also ruled him out of the French Open, world No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz said Tuesday.
The 23-year-old, a seven-time Grand Slam champion, has not played since withdrawing from the Barcelona Open last month.
"My recovery is going well and I feel much better, but unfortunately I'm still not ready to play, and that's why I have to withdraw from the grass-court swing at Queen's and Wimbledon," the 2023 and 2024 Wimbledon champion wrote on X.
Alcaraz's rivalry with Italy's Jannik Sinner has captivated men's tennis, and his absence from the next two Grand Slam tournaments is a significant blow to fans and broadcasters.
The pair contested an epic French Open final last year, with Alcaraz coming back to win the title before Sinner turned the tables to take the Wimbledon crown.
