Alcaraz to return for US Open title defence
The seven-time Grand Slam champion has not played since April with a wrist injury, missing both the French Open and Wimbledon.
Carlos Alcaraz, the youngest man to complete the career Grand Slam in January, announced his return to defend his US Open title after recovering from a wrist injury that sidelined him for four months. The seven-time Grand Slam champion expressed his enthusiasm in a video posted on social media. Alcaraz, who has not played since withdrawing from the Barcelona Open in mid-April due to a right wrist injury, had missed both the French Open and Wimbledon.
The injury, reported to be tenosynovitis, has kept him out of various tournaments, including Madrid, Rome, and Roland Garros. His withdrawal earlier in the year raised concerns about his readiness for the US Open; however, recent photos of Alcaraz practicing with ATP rival Holger Rune have reassured fans that he is on track to defend his title.
