Jannik Sinner holds the winner's trophy



Jannik Sinner defeats Learner Tien 6-2, 6-2 in the China Open final, claiming his third title of the season and 21st tour-level trophy.


“Keep going. You're playing incredible tennis. I wish you all the best for the rest of the season...”


Jannik Sinner cruised past American teenager Learner Tien in the China Open final, winning 6-2, 6-2 in just 1 hour and 14 minutes. This victory marked Sinner's second China Open title and his third trophy of the season, bringing his total tour-level trophies to 21.


Sinner didn't lose serve throughout the match and broke Tien four times, showcasing his dominance on the court. With this win, Sinner earned $751,075 in prize money and 500 ATP ranking points, increasing his points tally by 170 after losing in the final last year


Historic Feat with Carlos Alcaraz

Sinner's triumph, coupled with Carlos Alcaraz's Japan Open title win on Tuesday, marked a significant milestone - the first time since 2020 that the world number one and two have both claimed trophies in the same week. This achievement echoes the feats of Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal in 2020, who won titles in Dubai and Acapulco, respectively.


“It's a very, very special place for me,” Sinner said during the trophy presentation in Beijing.


“My team, thanks for understanding and working with me. Not all the team is here, hopefully the rest are watching from home. We'll try to improve and push for more and see what the rest of the season looks like.


“But I'm very happy to share this (trophy) with all of you.”


The four-time Grand Slam champion, likely Andy Murray, isn't specified in the search results, but we can infer based on Murray's history with injuries. Given Murray's struggles, here's a possible rewritten version:


The four-time Grand Slam champion came into the title match at the National Tennis Centre after a grueling semi-final win over Alex de Minaur on Tuesday. However, the victory was overshadowed by physical issues stemming from a stomach bug, which left the champion struggling to maintain peak performance. This isn't the first time the champion has faced physical challenges, having dealt with various injuries and health issues, including abdominal strain, back problems, and cramping.




Jannik Sinner's China Open Final Bound

Four-time Grand Slam champion Jannik Sinner came into the title match after a grueling semi-final win over Alex de Minaur on Tuesday. However, Sinner's physical struggles weren't due to a stomach bug, but rather cramps that he battled during the match. Despite this, Sinner showcased his resilience and tactical prowess, ultimately securing a 6-3, 4-6, 6-2 victory over De Minaur.


“You've shown throughout the whole season what a talent you are,” Sinner told Tien.


“Keep going. You're playing incredible tennis. I wish you all the best for the rest of the season and obviously for your whole career ... hopefully we can share more moments like this in the future.”


Sinner's win sets up a final match against 19-year-old American Learner Tien, who advanced to his first ATP tour final after Daniil Medvedev retired due to cramping issues in their semi-final match. Sinner expressed confidence in his ability to recover and perform well in the final, saying, “I have one night to recover. I'm going to be fine.”




Upcoming Tournaments for Sinner and Alcaraz

After his China Open triumph, Jannik Sinner will compete in the Shanghai Masters starting this week. Meanwhile, his rival Carlos Alcaraz will skip the tournament to focus on recovering from an injury, setting the stage for a potential showdown between the two in the future.


Following his China Open win, Sinner will compete in the Shanghai Masters starting this week, while Alcaraz is set to recover from injury. Sinner expressed his satisfaction with the win, thanking his team for their support and looking forward to future challenges.
