Tennis men's singles, Spain's Carlos Alcaraz, who is ranked number one in the world, will miss the Australian Open, one of the four major tournaments that will start this month, as he injured his foot during practice.
This was announced by Alcaraz on his Twitter account on the 6th.
According to this, he injured his right leg, saying, "During practice, I accidentally made an unnatural move and got injured. I tried hard to reach the highest level, but unfortunately I can't play." He has announced that he will miss the Australian Open, which starts on the 16th.
19-year-old Alcaraz won his first Grand Slam singles title at the U.S. Open last year, making him the youngest player ever to reach number one in the world rankings.
