“I was really looking forward to playing… See you next year!”
20-year-old Alcaraz won his first title since last summer’s Wimbledon at Indian Wells last month but was then beaten by Grigor Dimitrov in the quarter-finals of the Miami Open.

He has been replaced in the Monte Carlo men’s singles draw by Italy’s Lorenzo Sonego.
