Carlos Alcaraz says he felt burnt out after having too many commitments both on and off the court before his injury led to a lengthy spell away from competition. He describes the level of exposure to competing and other demands as part of what contributed to his exhaustion.
The comments come in the context of an extended layoff caused by an injury sustained in April. Outlets report that, prior to that setback, Alcaraz felt the cumulative effect of his schedule, suggesting his physical and mental recovery was affected by a period of heavy workload.
Both sources frame his remarks as reflective rather than blaming any single factor, emphasizing the sequence of circumstances: high exposure to commitments, followed by the April injury and subsequent time away from play. Different outlets provide the same core points and do not present conflicting details about the timeline or cause of the burnout.
