BARCELONA, Spain — Carlos Alcaraz has pulled out of the Barcelona Open with the same injury in his right forearm that kept him out of the Monte Carlo Masters. Sunday's announcement leaves Alcaraz's French Open preparation on hold. He is a two-time Grand Slam champion and former No. 1-ranked player who is currently No. 3. The 20-year-old from Spain won the title at the clay-court Barcelona Open in 2022 and 2023. He hasn't played in a tournament since losing to Grigor Dimitrov in the Miami Open quarterfinals last month. Alcaraz won the U.S. Open in 2022 and Wimbledon last year.
