JANNIK SINNER hopes Carlos Alcaraz’s absence from the tour will not prove to be a long one.

Alcaraz is in a race against time to be fit for the French Open, where his rivalry with Sinner peaked in a sensational five-set final last year, after suffering a wrist injury at the Barcelona Open last week.

That has forced him out of this week’s Madrid Open, the biggest event in his home country, for a second successive year, although he did make an appearance at the Caja Magica today to sign autographs.
