The news comes 10 days before the commencement of the French Open. Further reports have also revealed that he will be in Paris by next Wednesday. During his visit, Alcaraz will stay in a hotel next to the Champs-Élysées, a place where Rafael Nadal has previously stayed during his career.

And hopefully, like the Spaniard himself, Alcaraz will also join hands with him to make the comeback that everyone is waiting for. Especially after his back-to-back withdrawals from the tournaments of this season. It all started during his practice session with an injury to his right arm in Monaco during his Miami Open tournament. As the injury prevailed, he withdrew from the Monte Carlo Masters. And it continued in the Barcelona Open as well. However, he was all set to compete in the Madrid Open. But even after a valiant effort, Alcaraz faced a loss in the quarterfinals of the tournament.

However, his discomfort persisted even after that. But nothing wavered his confidence and determination to play in Rome. After the match, he admitted, “I have to keep working to recover my normal forehand without thinking about my forearm. I think that in Rome, I will continue to play with it (an arm sleeve) as a precaution. The balance is positive, but when I go out on court, I don’t want to lose.” But, his hardship prevailed in Rome as well.
