Jannik Sinner is rewriting the rulebook at the China Open, cruising into his third consecutive final with a rollercoaster 6-3, 4-6, 6-1 win over Alex de Minaur. The Italian star now boasts an 11-0 on-court record against his Aussie rival—talk about a tennis flex! 🏆 Sinner, who triumphed here in 2023, faces a fresh challenge Wednesday: 19-year-old Learner Tien, who stunned fans when Daniil Medvedev retired during their semifinal clash.
Meanwhile, Coco Gauff proved why she’s the queen of comebacks, battling from a set down to defeat Belinda Bencic 4-6, 7-6(4), 6-2. The US Open champ’s grit keeps her title defense alive as she eyes a quarterfinal showdown with Germany’s Eva Lys. With her fourth straight WTA Finals spot already secured, Gauff’s Beijing run feels like a victory lap—with extra drama. 🎾💥
All eyes now turn to Wednesday’s men’s final: Will Sinner’s experience prevail, or will Tien’s Cinderella story steal the spotlight? One thing’s certain—this tournament’s serving up next-gen tennis thrills! 👀
