Titled in Beijing, Sinner responds to Alcaraz



In the final of the ATP 500 in Beijing, Jannik Sinner dominated this Wednesday morning Learner Tien in two sets (6-2, 6-2) and is now at 21 titles won in his career (including three this year).

In the aftermath of Carlos Alcaraz’s victory during the Tokyo ATP 500, Jannik Sinner replied remotely. Indeed, this Wednesday morning, the Italian won in Beijing (a tournament of the same category as that in Japan) thanks to his victory in the final against Learner Tien in two sets (6-2, 6-2) and 1h14 of play.

Not always sparkling this week in China (he notably left two rounds on the way), the world number two still assured this time and did not really spare the suspense. Because, from an entrance break, the latter quickly detached into the first set and then pushed the point home shortly after taking the service of the young American (19) to 3-1 again. Behind, Sinner did not tremble to confirm his advance on the display board and pocketed the first round on his second set ball.

And now Sinner is heading for Shanghai

Subsequently, if yours resisted a little more, the latter ended up making arms. Because, at 2-2, the Italian made a new break and then gleaned the three games that followed, just to finish the work in style. At 5-2 in his favor, the Italian still had to wait for his third match ball to win his 21st title since the start of his career, and the 3rd in 2025 after the Australian Open and Wimbledon.

From now on, the latter remains on a crazy series of 63 wins in a row against adversaries out of the top 10 since his defeat in Shanghai against Ben Shelton, two years ago. Victorious in Beijing, the world number two should normally stay in China to participate in the penultimate Masters 1000 of the year, where he will be the big favorite in the absence of Alcaraz. Exempted from the 1st round, he will start against the German Daniel Altmaier (50th in the world).
