Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> has withdrawn from Spain\u2019s upcoming Davis Cup Final 8<\/a> quarter-final against Czechia, which will take place on Thursday, 20 November in Bologna, due to a right hamstring injury.<\/p>\n

The No. 1 player in the PIF ATP Rankings, who fell to Jannik Sinner<\/a> in Sunday\u2019s Nitto ATP Finals<\/a> title match, required a medical timeout during the final to have his leg strapped. Alcaraz arrived in Italy on Monday but, after undergoing tests, decided to withdraw and return home.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very sorry to announce that I will not be able to play with Spain in the Davis Cup in Bologna,\u201d Alcaraz wrote on X on Tuesday morning. \u201cI have edema in my right hamstring and the medical recommendation is not to compete. I have always said that playing for Spain is the greatest thing there is and I was really looking forward to helping fight for the Salad Bowl [trophy]. I am going home hurt\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n
