After four months sidelined by injury, tennis star Carlos Alcaraz makes his highly-anticipated return at the 2026 U.S. Open.
As the 2025 champion, Alcaraz will look to defend his title at Flushing Meadows, though the road to glory won't be an easy one. The 23-year-old suffered a right wrist injury in April, and was forced to sit out the French Open and Wimbledon tournaments. Now recovered, Alcaraz is playing his first singles match in more than four months.
Alcaraz is easily one of the biggest names in the main draw — especially since rival Jannik Sinner has withdrawn — but he might be rusty in competition. Legend Novak Djokovic has also been drawn into the same side as the Spanish star, which could set the two up for a semifinal clash down the line.
