The Spaniard hurt his right wrist last month at the Barcelona Open. He withdrew from several tournaments, including the French Open, ending his attempt to win three-consecutive crowns at Roland Garros. The 2026 Australian Open champion will now miss at least half of the Grand Slams contested this year.
"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 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!
