Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.

Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

World No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz will miss the Cincinnati Masters 1000 starting next week due to a wrist injury. Tournament organizers announced the withdrawal on Tuesday and expressed their best wishes for his recovery. The 23 year old Spaniard has been sidelined since April. He had planned to use the Cincinnati event to prepare for the US Open, which begins on August 30.

Alcaraz previously won the Cincinnati title last year. According to reports, he has missed other major events including the French Open and Wimbledon during his recovery process. While he has posted training videos recently, his fitness for the US Open remains uncertain. The Winston Salem Open, starting August 23, represents the final opportunity for Alcaraz to compete before the final Grand Slam of the season. He has not yet confirmed if he will participate in that event.
