The 23-year-old Spaniard has not played since withdrawing from his second-round match at the Barcelona Open last month after experiencing pain in his right wrist during his opening match. Prior to this, Alcaraz had already pulled out of several tournaments, including the French Open, which is scheduled to begin on Sunday.
“My recovery is going well and I’m feeling much better, but unfortunately I’m still not ready to compete, which is why I have to withdraw from the grass-court swing at Queen’s and Wimbledon,” Alcaraz wrote in a statement on social media. “They are two truly special tournaments for me and I will miss them a lot. We’ll keep working to come back as soon as possible!”
Career Highlights and Recent Performance
Alcaraz is the reigning champion at Roland Garros, having defeated Jannik Sinner in the final. The Spanish player, who is a two-time Wimbledon champion, reached the Wimbledon final last year but lost to Sinner in four sets.
