Alcaraz set to return from injury, defend Open title

Carlos Alcaraz, the seven-time Grand Slam champion ranked No. 2, is set to return from a right wrist injury that has kept him out since April, causing him to miss both the French Open and Wimbledon. The Spaniard announced his return on social media ahead of the US Open, where he will defend his title won last year by beating Jannik Sinner in the final. Alcaraz also claimed the Australian Open title earlier this season before his injury setback.
