Contesto

Carlos Alcaraz, the two-time defending champion at Roland-Garros, announced Friday that he will not participate in this year’s tournament due to a right wrist injury. The Spanish tennis star also confirmed he will miss the upcoming Masters 1000 event in Rome as he continues to recover from the injury, dealing a major blow to the French Open field.
