Tennis star Carlos Alcaraz has shared a massive injury update ahead of his potential matchup against Jannik Sinner in the Italian Open 2025. The world number three has pulled out from the ongoing Mutua Madrid Open 2025 due to injuries. Alcaraz was seen in heavy pain during the Barcelona Open 2025 final against Holger Rune, which forced him to pull out from the Spanish capital, Madrid.
However, the four-time Grand Slam winner is expected to make his presence felt in the upcoming Italian Open 2025. Some of the images have gone viral on social media, featuring his practice sessions with his coach. This clip showed that he might stage his comeback in Rome.
Carlos Alcaraz to miss Italian Open 2025 amid injury battles?
However, Alcaraz has finally broken the silence and talked about his possibility of playing in the Rome Masters. If the star player makes his presence felt in the Italian Open 2025, then the hype will double, as the fans will be eager to see him face off against world number one Jannik Sinner, who will be making his comeback after his three-month doping ban.
Meanwhile, Alcaraz has revealed that his mindset is to fully try his best for the Italian Open 2025. He revealed that he is yet to do the tests ahead of the tournament. However, he further added that if he missed the Rome Masters, he would be making his presence felt at Roland Garros, where he aims to defend his title to win the fifth Grand Slam of his career.
“In the Barcelona final I felt something in the left hamstring; I didn’t think that it was that serious. I’m really disappointed that I’m not able to play here in Madrid. It is a place that I love playing in front of my people, in front of my family, and my friends. My hope is to play in Rome. My mindset is to do everything it takes to be 100 per cent for Rome. If not, the next tournament is Roland Garros for me. So I will try to be on court as soon as possible,” Alcaraz said.
