unfortunate injury has kept the star out of Roland Garros and Wimbledon, as well as Masters events in Madrid, Rome, Montreal, and Cincinnati.<\/p>\n<p>The star is still on the entry list for the US Open, which he has earmarked for his return, but he will miss another tournament which is set to take place in September.<\/p>\n<p>The Spaniard is not set to feature for Spain in their Davis Cup tie against Chile, which is set to take place away from home between the 19th and 20th September.<\/p>\n<p>Alcaraz, and Alejandro Davidovich Fokina, will not play for Spain on the clay, although Spain\u2019s Davis Cup captain David Ferrer has still picked a strong team for a tough away tie in South America.<\/p>\n<h2>Spain\u2019s Davis Cup team to face Chile<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Rafael

playing without their talented talisman.<\/p>\n<p>However, Alcaraz has been impressive for Spain at the Davis Cup since making his debut in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>Alcaraz has won six matches for his country in Davis Cup action, in both singles and debuts. His last appearance came in the quarter finals of the Davis Cup Finals back in 2024, which Spain lost to the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<p>He defeated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/Tallon-Griekspoor\">Tallon Griekspoor<\/a> in the tie, but he and Marcel Granollers lost their doubles tie to Wesley Koolhof and Botic van de Zandschulp.<\/p>\n<h2>More Carlos Alcaraz news<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/carlos-alcaraz-usopen-warning-wrist-injury\">Carlos Alcaraz sent big warning as he weighs up \u2018risky\u2019 US Open decision<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tennis-news\/carlos-alcaraz-injury-us-open-training-update\">Carlos Alcaraz \u2018trained at 55% last week\u2019, says Spanish tennis legend<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Davis Cup is one of the few majors that Alcaraz has still not claimed, so it would not be surprising to see him return to the Spain team for the Davis Cup Finals, should the nation reach the Bologna finals at the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the beginning of the year, after he had earned the Career Grand Slam by winning the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tennis365.com\/tag\/australian-open\">Australian Open<\/a>, Alcaraz said winning the Davis Cup with Spain was still one of his major goals in the sport.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Davis Cup, it is a goal as well.
