The reason why Alcaraz had to stop his training at the Australian Open

Carlos Alcaraz had to stop his training on this Tuesday, January 20th, in Melbourne for a reason that has drawn a lot of attention. Although it is nothing serious, at least for now, the Spanish player, world number one, had to pause practice to treat a blister on his finger, an injury that probably won't have any impact on his matches in the 2026 Australian Open.
