Carlos Alcaraz has been compared to ‘the big three’ by compatriot and former world No.3 David Ferrer, suggesting that his fellow Spaniard ‘is in a year of transition’.

Alcaraz was forced to retire from his first round match at the Rio Open last week after only two games, with the 20-year-old twisting his ankle in just the second point.

The Wimbledon champion has since had an MRI scan and revealed that it should only take a few days to recover, making him able to play in Indian Wells and bid to defend the title.
