It looks like she should be back in competition before Wimbledon at Queen's. However, his famous compatriot Alex Corretja doubts he could return so soon. Feliciano Lopez, Madrid's tournament director, also stressed that the Spaniard must not force a comeback.
Alex Corretja: “I'm not sure Alcaraz will be ready for Wimbledon”
“Carlos must be extremely cautious, he must not set deadlines for his return. It is imperative that he let the tendon in his hand fully recover. Only in about a month and a half we will have a clearer picture of the situation. I am not at all sure that he will be ready for Wimbledon.
He has to be extremely careful so that the wrist can recover. If he returns to grass, it will not be easy because playing on this surface requires sudden movements, and that can be a problem if the wrist is fragile,” said Alex Corretja, according to sportal.blic.rs.
I had a similar injury and it is a serious matter. The wrist is delicate, has many tendons and small bones, and in order for a tennis player to play normally, his hand must be prepared not 100%, but 200%. Because everything is done with the wrist.
If it's 80% healthy, that may be more of a problem than if it were another part of the body. It can get worse. Carlos is young enough that he will still have a chance. He is two years younger than Jannik and has plenty of time to recover. No need to risk too much.
