The worst omens have been fulfilled and Carlos Alcaraz will not compete this year at Mutua Madrid Open. In the absence of official confirmation by the player, the 21 -year -old Spanish tennis player number 3 in the world will not play the Madrid tournament because of the discomfort in the adductor he suffered during the Barcelona final Open Banc Sabadell, the Count Tournament of Godó, against Holger Rune last Sunday.
Alcaraz, who went to the Laureus Awards ceremony on Monday, and that on Tuesday he participated in the presentation of his documentary, he jumped the alarms about his participation when he did not attend to the media this Wednesday during an act of ‘Elpozo Biestar’ held in the Plaza de Callao, which caused doubts about his presence in the tournament. At 12:30 Alcaraz will give a press conference in the Magic Box that is expected to give more details about this resignation.
With Alcaraz’s decline, Mutua Madrid Open runs out of one of its great attractions, champion in the 2022 and 2023 editionsand the great Spanish figure in the tournament with Paula Badosa. Alcaraz will also yield 200 points in the ATP ranking after it fell in the quarterfinals last year against Rublev and now try to recover during the next weeks to reach 1,000 Masters from Rome, his last test before Roland Garros.
