Carlos Alcaraz Issues Crucial Ankle Injury Update Just Hours Before Japan Open Clash

Remember the last time Carlos Alcaraz withdrew from a tournament? It was the Madrid Open this year after his adductor injury in Barcelona against Holger Rune. The Spaniard missed his chance at a third Madrid crown but bounced back with two Slam titles this year after that, proving his mettle. Now, making his Japan Open debut, he opened with a dominant 6-4, 6-2 win over Sebastian Baez. Yet, a fresh injury scare threatened to halt his run before his next match. However, hours before stepping on court today, Alcaraz delivered a crucial injury update, assuring fans he is ready to fight again in Tokyo.

Just an hour ago, Tennis TV lit up X with a playful clip of Carlos Alcaraz. The Spaniard was seen on court, walking the baseline with perfect toe-to-heel balance, as fans watched closely. The post read, “Balance = Another challenge? Alcaraz walks right through it. ”

Moments later, journalist José Morgado amplified the buzz, sharing the clip with the caption, “Carlos Alcaraz checking if he is ready to play later today…” The message was clear: Alcaraz is locked in, tuned up, and ready to bring the fire when he steps back on court later today.
