Carlos Alcaraz will miss the Italian Internationals in Rome and, above all, Roland Garros. The Spanish tennis player announced the decision through his social channels.
“After today’s test results, we decided to be cautious. It’s a tough time for me, but I’m sure we’ll come back stronger,” he wrote.
The decision after the exams
The decision to stop came following medical tests, which encouraged the player and his staff not to take risks, thus giving up two of the most important events of the clay season.
Sinner takes flight
By virtue of the Spaniard’s forfeit, Jannik Sinner will have a great opportunity to increase his lead in the standings because Alcaraz will lose many points having just returned from success on the clay in Rome and Paris.
