Carlos Alcaraz has officially withdrawn from the Wimbledon Championships as he continues recovering from injury.
The Spaniard confirmed the news in a statement, revealing that he is still not ready to return to competition despite making progress in recovery.
“My recovery is going well and I feel much better,” Alcaraz said.
“But unfortunately I’m still not ready to be able to play, and that’s why I have to withdraw from the grass-court swing at Queen’s and Wimbledon.”
“They are two really special tournaments for me and I’ll miss them a lot.”
The withdrawal means Alcaraz will miss both French Open and Wimbledon this season, a huge blow for one of the biggest stars in tennis.
The 23-year-old added that his main focus now is returning fully healthy.
“We keep working to return as soon as possible.”
His fans across the world have already reacted to the news, hoping to see Alcaraz back in time for the American hard-court season later this year.
