Carlos Alcaraz has withdrawn from Spain’s upcoming Davis Cup second-round qualifier against Denmark, which will take place in Valencia from 12-13 September, due to fatigue.
The 22-year-old Spaniard defeated fierce rival Jannik Sinner in the US Open final on Sunday and simultaneously sealed his return to No. 1 in the PIF ATP Rankings for the first time since September 2023. Alcaraz owns a 5-1 career record at the Davis Cup, according to the Infosys ATP Win/Loss Index, having made his debut in 2022.
Jaume Munar, Roberto Carballes Baena and Pablo Carreno Busta have replaced Alcaraz and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina — who has also pulled out — in Team Spain’s lineup, which is led by captain David Ferrer.
Holger Rune headlines Denmark’s lineup, which also includes Elmer Moeller, August Holmgren, Christian Sigsgaard and Johannes Ingildsen.
