BEIJING (AP) — Jannik Sinner prepared for his Shanghai Masters
appearance with a 6-2, 6-2 win over American teenager Learner
Tien on Wednesday at the China Open.
On Tuesday, Sinner won his 11th straight career match against
Alex de Minaur. Sinner's 6-4, 3-6, 6-2 victory earned him a
ninth straight final at hard-court tournaments. Tien, the
19-year-old Californian ranked No. 52, played in his first tour
final after Daniil Medvedev retired injured when the score was
5-7, 7-5, 4-0 on Tuesday.
The ATP event in Beijing ran concurrently with the WTA 1000
tournament which is into the fourth round and ends Sunday. Among
those playing their fourth-round matches later Wednesday were
top-seeded Iga Swiatek and fifth-seeded Jessica Pegula.
Second-seeded Coco Gauff has already qualified for the
quarterfinals, which she is scheduled to play against Eva Lys on
Thursday.
