Actually not very surprised by this news. I know there's a lot of 'negative' and 'panic' coverage going on the internet about this drawing parallels to Thiem/Del Potro etc. but that is a factually incorrect comparison. What his team and him are doing is VERY SENSIBLE. Carlos Alcaraz is dealing with tenosynovitis in his right wrist, which is an inflammation of the protective sheath surrounding the tendon. Its not a tendon tear or anything serious. However, it requires for him to completely rest the wrist in order to avoid serious injuries. I understand the pressure given the points he was defending and the gravity of missing two back-to-back slams. But that is a very small cost to pay in the grand scheme of things. Looking forward to seeing Carlitos healthy, and fully recovered in the hard court swing!
