Madrid, November 19, 2025 — World No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz has been ruled out of the Davis Cup 2025 Final 8 after suffering a muscular edema injury, his team confirmed on Tuesday. The Spanish star experienced discomfort during training, and medical tests revealed swelling in the muscle that requires immediate rest and rehabilitation. The setback is a major blow to Spain’s Davis Cup campaign, as Alcaraz was expected to lead the squad in the knockout phase.
Team officials stated that while the injury is not long-term, pushing through it could risk more serious damage. Spain will now rely on its remaining roster depth to fill the gap left by Alcaraz, whose absence has shifted tournament dynamics. Fans and analysts have expressed disappointment but remain hopeful he will recover fully ahead of the upcoming season.
