Two-time Wimbledon champion Carlos Alcaraz announced on Tuesday that he will miss next month's grass‑court Grand Slam after a lingering wrist injury. The world No. 2, who beat Novak Djokovic in both 2023 and 2024 finals, said the injury forced him out of the French Open and now casts a shadow over his season today.

Alcaraz also confirmed he will skip the HSBC Championships at Queen's Club, the traditional warm‑up for Wimbledon, after posting a brief update on X. He noted that recovery is progressing but he is not yet ready to compete, expressing disappointment at missing two tournaments that hold special meaning for him this year during the season.

The decision follows Alcaraz's wrist injury at the Barcelona Open last month, which forced a withdrawal from the French Open that begins this weekend. His absence opens the door for rivals to capitalize on a potentially weakened field, while fans anticipate whether he can return in time for the next hard‑court swing this season in.

Alcaraz's early‑season triumph at the Australian Open cemented his status as the youngest player to hold all four majors simultaneously. Losing Wimbledon will undoubtedly affect his ranking trajectory and momentum heading into the summer circuit, leaving the tennis world to wonder how long his injury will keep him sidelined for the season ahead of the.
