Carlos Alcaraz claimed his maiden French Open title with murmurs of forehand injury. Despite not being at his 100% he crushed Alexander Zverev’s challenge on the clay court in the final. And the World No.2 would now get more dangerous on the court with his recovery! Yes, the defending champion is back on grass to claim his Wimbledon trophy. Though for the first time in decades, the Wimbledon would commence without any of the Big3. It’s anybody’s court to challenge, as Alcaraz looks forward to extending his streak.

In a fresh tennis update on X, a page shared a snippet of Alcaraz practice on the grass at the Queen’s Club. However, there was something amiss in the picture, to the delight of the fans. The prominent forehand sleeve has disappeared, pointing towards the Spaniard’s recovery. The forum confirmed the speculation, saying, “Alcaraz no longer needing the sleeve he wore at Roland Garros. Not surprising, given his forehand seemed back to normal there.”

The presence of doubts overshadowed Alcaraz’s French Open campaign, all because of his forehand sleeve. It was unclear as to how far the Spaniard got through. As he struggled to overcome the quarterfinals, the 21-year-old started to groove into his rhythm during the semifinal match against Jannik Sinner. And since then he hasn’t looked back! If anything the World No.2 is deemed to be more threatening to any challenger than before.

As the calendar year struck in London before proceeding back to Paris for the Olympic retreat, tennis fans are eager to witness highly charged rivalry between the youngsters. Some legends went far ahead to declare the reign of the Big 3 over due to the absence of Novak Djokovic. As they play a rivalry match-up for the Grass Swing!

Will Jannik Sinner extract his revenge from Carlos Alcaraz at Wimbledon?

Jannik Sinner underwent sleepless nights and failed to enjoy his number 1 crown due to his loss at the French Open semifinals to Alcaraz. And as speculation began, former pro Greg Rusedski went all out to support the Italian for the coveted Grass Grand Slam. He said, “So for me, if he can get fit and get the right preparation for Wimbledon, I think that’s what he’s thinking. Okay, let’s get this hip right.” 

Sinner pulled out of the Madrid Open due to a hip injury. Though rest would have been the preferable way, the Italian came back to try his luck at Roland Garros. Sadly, it culminated in a heart-crushing defeat. Moving forward, Alcaraz has recovered from his injury in Paris, Sinner is midway. And as both the players would be rallying to capture the Gentlemen’s title at Wimbledon, it would be interesting to watch how it fares out.

Would Sinner regain his form to cause an upset and equal the H2H record? Or Alcaraz would claim his 2nd consecutive Wimbledon?
