Carlos Alcaraz has withdrawn from the Cincinnati Open, extending his absence from competitive tennis. The world No.2 has not played since April due to a wrist injury, which also forced him to miss the French Open and Wimbledon.
Return Delayed Again
There was optimism that Alcaraz would make his comeback on the North American hard-court swing, especially with the US Open approaching. The Spaniard had appeared fit and sharp in training sessions, but organisers have now confirmed his withdrawal from Cincinnati.
Statement from Organisers
Tournament officials issued a statement announcing Alcaraz's absence, though no further details were provided. The delay raises questions about his readiness for the US Open, which begins later this month.
