Tennis: Alcaraz fortsatt skadet – må droppe Masters-turnering
Verdenstoer Carlos Alcaraz er fortsatt ikke friskmeldt fra håndleddsskaden han pådro seg i april, og har meldt avbud til ATP Masters 1000-turneringen i Cincinnati.
Turneringen i den amerikanske delstaten Ohio, der den spanske 23-åringen vant i fjor, starter 13. august.
– Vi vet at Carlos gjør alt han kan for å komme tilbake til turneringsspill så snart som mulig. Vi ønsker ham alt godt med rehabiliteringen og ser fram til å ønske ham velkommen tilbake til Cincinnati i fremtiden, sier turneringsdirektør Bob Moran.
Alcaraz er også tittelforsvarer i US Open, årets siste Grand Slam-turnering, som starter 30. august i New York. Skadeforfallet som ble kjent tirsdag, sår også tvil om Alcaraz kan stille der.
Den sjudobbelte Grand Slam-vinneren har allerede trukket seg fra blant annet Roland-Garros i Paris og Wimbledon i London i år etter skaden som han pådro seg i første runde av Barcelona Open i april.

A.J. Epenesa not inclined to discuss "weird situation" with Browns
Before Eagles defensive end A.J. Epenesa landed in Philadelphia, he had a one-year deal worth up to $5 million in place with the Browns. Until he didn't.
The Browns pulled out of the agreement, due to concerns regarding his physical.
Speaking to reporters on Tuesday, Epenesa didn't want to say much about the Browns. He made it clear that he's happy to be with the Eagles.
"Cleveland, you know, it was a weird situation," Epenesa told reporters. "But I don't necessarily want to go back and talk on that in just a weird sense but I'll just leave that in the past and just be happy that I'm not a Brown and that I'm an Eagle."
Is Epenesa healthy now?
"Very healthy," he said, "feeling good, and happy to be here."
His contract with the Eagles pays much less than his contract with the Browns would have entailed — one year, $1.402 million.
A second-round pick in 2020, Epenesa spent his first six seasons with the Bills.
Sanders, Watson to Split Preseason Starts
Cleveland Browns coach Todd Monken has revealed his timeline for a quarterback decision, confirming that Shedeur Sanders and Deshaun Watson will each start a preseason game. The next week will determine who starts Aug. 15 at Chicago and who starts the Aug. 22 home game against the Bills.
Watson has played only 19 games since arriving in Cleveland in 2022 and hasn't played since October 2024 due to Achilles injuries. Sanders earned Pro Bowl honors as a rookie despite starting only seven games, completing 56.6 percent of his passes for 1,400 yards with seven touchdowns and 10 interceptions.
