The latest: Alcaraz withdraws from the Madrid Masters
Alcaraz has withdrawn from the Madrid Open due to an adductor injury he sustained in Barcelona, as well as another injury to his left foot. Alcaraz announced the decision at a pre-match press conference in Madrid, the capital of Spain, on Thursday.
Alcaraz said:
In the Barcelona final, I felt a little discomfort in my leg, but I didn't expect the injury to be so serious. I was really disappointed not to be able to race in Madrid. It's where I love to compete, in front of my compatriots, family and friends. They can't come and play for me very often, so it's special for me. It's a really tough situation right now. It's not easy to decide not to compete, but tennis is a demanding sport. Week after week, so many games in a row. You have to make tough decisions, but I'll come back stronger.
If memory serves, since his debut, Alcaraz never seemed to have played a complete match from Monte Carlo to the end of the French Open.
In 2024, he participated in the Madrid and French Open.
Absent from the Monte Carlo Masters in 2023.
Absent from the Rome Masters in 2022.
Missed Monte Carlo and Rome Masters in 2021.

Alcaraz received treatment for his right thigh in the Barcelona final last week. He is a two-time winner of Madrid, so he was hoping to recover his fitness and compete in the ATP1000 Masters in the Spanish capital. But he felt the game came too quickly. Yes, from the Barcelona final to Thursday, it was only 4 days.
Alcaraz has a 24-5 record this season, with highlights coming in Monte Carlo and Rotterdam. They are currently ranked first in the ATP Torino Championship standings.
At present, there is no change in the draw for the Madrid Masters, and after Alcaraz retires, will the No. 2 seed be topped by No. 3 seed Fritz, or will it be directly topped by the lucky loser?
Stay tuned......
