Carlos Alcaraz is dealing with two different injuries right now but journalist Gill Gross sees no issues in him making Roland Garros as neither are serious.

Carlos Alcaraz won't play in Monte-Carlo due to two separate injury issues but reporter Gross doesn't think it will be a problem. After all, the Spaniard was already spotted on a tennis court practicing which means that the injury are really not serious as Gross said. It's probably mostly to rest up and prepare well for Barcelona and Madrid.

Gross said:

"Most definitely, this to me what he is dealing with right now, which is traumatic arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis in his left hand and muscular discomfort in the spine, to me, neither of those things are bad injuries. In fact, this reminds me a lot of Acapulco. Remember, Carlos Alcaraz pulled out of Acapulco. And there were question marks heading into Indian Wells, about what kind of physical state is algorithm."

He further said:

"He pulled out of that Las Vegas exhibition and if you'll remember my take heading into Indian Wells on 'was he injured?' It would have been smart to pull out of Acapulco. He hadn't played in three plus months prior and then he made back to back finals in Buenos Aries and Rio. So should he play three weeks or row after not playing for over 12 weeks. No."
