Carlos Alcaraz withdraws from the Cincinnati Open because of a lingering wrist
injury
CINCINNATI (AP) --- Carlos Alcaraz withdrew Tuesday from the Cincinnati Open
because of a lingering right wrist injury that has sidelined him since April.
The No. 2-ranked Spaniard was hoping to return to defend his title in the
hard-court tournament, which serves as an important warmup for the U.S. Open.
"We know Carlos is doing everything he can to get back to playing tournaments
as soon as possible," tournament director Bob Moran said in a statement. "We
wish him the best with his recovery and look forward to welcoming him back to
Cincinnati in the future."
Alcaraz last played at the Barcelona Open, then missed the French Open and the
entire grass-court season, including Wimbledon.
He is entered in the U.S. Open, where he is the defending champion. Recent
photos and videos on social media have shown the seven-time Grand Slam winner
on the practice courts, so it was thought he would be ready to play in the
Cincinnati event that begins Aug. 11.
