See you in Las Vegas and Indian Wells!" the former World No.1 in the wrote in his social media post.
Just two points into his match against Monteiro late on Tuesday night, Alcaraz was moving laterally back towards the centre of the court after returning serve in the Ad court when Monteiro went back in behind him.

With Monteiro’s help, Alcaraz made his way back to his bench and had his ankle heavily strapped by ATP physio Alejandro Resnicoff.
He returned to the court and broke the Brazilian to take a 1-0 lead.But his movement was compromised and he retired after dropping serve in the next game.
With Alcaraz defending 1000 points as the reigning champion in Indian Wells, he will face a challenge from Jannik Sinner for the World No.2 ranking.
