A terrible news fell on Friday evening. The world number 1 Carlos Alcaraz will not be able to take part in the Australian Open which will take place from January 16 to 29. This is a big blow for the young Spaniard who had just returned from a torn oblique muscle suffered in the quarterfinals of the last Rolex Paris Masters. This time, Alcaraz explained in a Twitter post that he injured his right leg during the preparation of the first Grand Slam of the season.
“While I was at my best in preseason, I contracted an injury through a fortuitous and unnatural movement in practice. This time it was the semimembranosus muscle in my right leg. I had worked so hard to reach my best level for Australia but unfortunately I won’t be able to play the Care A2+ Kooyong and the Australian Open. It’s hard, but I have to stay optimistic, recover and look forward. See you in 2024…”
