Alcaraz returns from injury at US Open, vows to play his way

–

Neutral summary

Carlos Alcaraz is back at the US Open after more than four months off the tour with a right wrist injury that forced him to miss the French Open and Wimbledon. The defending champion opens his campaign in New York against Russia's Roman Safiullin. Alcaraz called the comeback a “real challenge” but said he is ready and has not changed his game: “You’re going to see Carlitos playing the way he always has.” He also admitted that uncertainty over his recovery fueled “intrusive thoughts,” though he now insists everything is in his head and he must trust himself.
