Carlos Alcaraz makes another strong comment about the tennis schedule as Jannik Sinner ends his season early

Carlos Alcaraz returned to action at the US Open after a four-month layoff due to a wrist injury, a setback that had derailed careers of past champions like Dominic Thiem and Juan Martín del Potro. Despite the concerns, Alcaraz demonstrated resilience, reaching the quarterfinals in New York before securing his 27th ATP title at the Japan Open.

His victory came after a quarterfinal loss to Ben Shelton, a result that seemed to ease lingering doubts about his recovery. In a recent interview, Alcaraz admitted to moments of self-doubt during his recovery but credited his support team for helping him regain confidence.

He also expressed frustration with the current tennis schedule, suggesting it may be contributing to injuries among top players, including rival Jannik Sinner, who ended his season early due to a knee issue. Alcaraz acknowledged his inconsistency remains a work in progress, admitting he still struggles with maintaining peak performance across matches.
