Sinner ruled out of US Open with injury a day after Alcaraz announces return
Italian tennis star Jannik Sinner has announced he will not compete in the upcoming U.S. Open due to a persistent knee injury. This decision was made just a day after his rival, Carlos Alcaraz, revealed his own return to the sport. Alcaraz, the defending champion at the U.S. Open, will be back to play after a four-month hiatus to address a right wrist injury.
Despite his absence, Alcaraz remains ranked second in the world. Sinner's withdrawal from the tournament allows Alcaraz to potentially secure his eighth Grand Slam title at the U.S. Open, which runs from August 23 to September 13.
