Updated news on Carlos Aclaraz,

Alcaraz is schedule to undergo crucial medical examination this Friday, with a positive outcome expected to pave the way for a full training next week. Alcaraz has gradually increased the intensity of his workouts.He recently shared footage of himself hitting ball again, a significant milestone in his recovery.
However, the Spaniard and his team are continuing to adopt a cautious approach to avoid any setback and return to be 100%
If Friday's medical evaluation confirms that his wrist is 100% healed, Alcaraz is expected to resume unrestricted training on Monday and begin a short preseason ahead of the North American HC swing

BTW I just noticed that Alcaraz name is not on the entry list for Monteral, seeing he is waiting for the clearance from his doctor to return to full time training after Friday, playing Monteral maybe too early and makes sense

Felix has been knocking at the door for the next level for a while now. Maybe he needs someone that can help him just demolish the door instead of waiting for an answer. Time for a fresh voice.

Murat Hi!

Agree, it is time for a fresh voice and I hope he finds the right coach to get him to the next level,
I rewatched his match against Novak, you know he had that first set on his racquet, he missed that overhead in the TB which he normally could do blind folded, that to me turned the match in ways, to me he had to win that first set, just my opinion to have a good chance to defeat Novak, you know if he has won the 1st set it might have well change the outcome of the match
