Carlos Alcaraz Withdraws from Wimbledon Due to Wrist Injury

2026-06-23 · Carlos Alcaraz · Player Focus

Carlos Alcaraz has withdrawn from Wimbledon due to a wrist injury, sparking concerns about his career.

The 23-year-old Spaniard, who won Wimbledon in 2023 and 2024, has been battling a wrist problem that also forced him to withdraw from the French Open.

He announced his withdrawal from Wimbledon, stating his recovery was "going well" but he was not ready to play.

Andre Agassi, an eight-time Grand Slam champion, is demanding clarity on the injury, saying it would be "really helpful" to know the exact nature of the problem.

Agassi, who has experienced wrist injuries himself, questioned the lack of information on Alcaraz's condition.

The tennis legend wants to know if it's a form of tendinitis, such as dorsal capsulitis or a carpal tunnel-type problem.

Alcaraz's withdrawal from Wimbledon has opened up opportunities for other players, including Alexander Zverev, who won the French Open.

Zverev, now the world No. 3, will be among the leading contenders at Wimbledon, along with Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic.

Alcaraz had started the year strongly, defeating Djokovic in the Australian Open final to complete the career Grand Slam at just 22 years old.

He became the youngest man to achieve this feat, adding to his two Wimbledon titles and two French Open victories in 2024 and 2025.

The Spaniard appeared to pick up the injury during a match at the Barcelona Open, with subsequent tests revealing it was worse than initially feared.

This ruled him out of the Madrid tournament, and he has been working on his recovery since then.

As the tennis world waits for Alcaraz's return, his fans will be eager to see him back on the court, competing at the highest level.

The exact timeline for his return is still uncertain, but Alcaraz has stated he is working to come back as soon as possible.
