The world’s top-ranked tennis player, Carlos Alcaraz, will miss the rest of the season after suffering an abdominal muscle tear, he wrote Saturday on Twitter.

"After my withdrawal yesterday and having been evaluated by my medical team,@drlopezmartinez and@JuanjoMoreno_M, unfortunately this is the result of my injury: an internal oblique muscle tear in the left abdominal wall with an estimated recovery time of six weeks." Alcaraz tweeted.

Alcaraz, 19, said he withdrew from the ATP Finals and the Davis Cup Finals. "It is tough and painful for me to miss these two events, which are so important to me, but all I can do is be positive and focus on my recovery," he wrote.

The Spanish wonderkid won the 2022 US Open men's singles title to claim his maiden Grand Slam championship.
