Carlos Alcaraz, the two-time French Open champion, is facing uncertainty over his participation in the upcoming Grand Slam due to a wrist injury. The world's second-ranked player will undergo medical tests in the coming days to determine the extent of the injury.
Alcaraz, who recently withdrew from the Madrid Open, expressed his patience and optimism, stating that the next medical test will be crucial in deciding his fate. The 22-year-old Spaniard has been dealing with the injury since the Barcelona Open, where he had to undergo treatment during his opening match. Meanwhile, Aryna Sabalenka has been named sportswoman of the year at the Laureus awards, joining an illustrious list of past winners, including Jennifer Capriati, Justine Henin, and Serena Williams. Sabalenka admitted to feeling 'a little bit crazy' to be included among such legends, but also expressed her gratitude and pride in receiving the award.
