World No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz<\/a> has withdrawn from this month’s Swiss Indoors championships in Basel due to injury, organizers said on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Alcaraz’s withdrawal is a blow to his hopes of gaining ground on Novak Djokovic<\/a> in the ATP rankings, with the top-ranked Serbian next in action at the Paris Masters beginning on Oct. 30.<\/p>\n

“According to his doctor’s bulletin, the World No. 2 is suffering from an inflammation of the sole of his left foot and problems in his gluteal muscles,” organizers said in a statement.<\/p>\n

The two-time Grand Slam champion, 20, was defeated by Grigor Dimitrov<\/a> in the Shanghai Masters round of 16 earlier this month.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
