Jannik Sinner eases past Learnen Tien, wins Beijing title
Jannik Sinner claimed his second China Open crown in Beijing. World no. 2 faced the young American, Learnen Tien, in the final and secured a one-sided 6-2, 6-2 victory in an hour and 12 minutes.
Thus, the Italian secured his 21st ATP title and the 18th on hard courts. Jannik denied both break points and had the upper hand from start to finish. He tamed his strokes nicely and landed over 20 winners with under ten mistakes.
Tien could not follow that pace. A teenager failed to impose his strokes and challenge the champion from 2023. Tien served at 51% and sprayed six double faults. He lost half of the points in his games and suffered four breaks from six chances offered to the favorite.
Sinner forged a massive advantage in the shortest exchanges up to four strokes, firing more service winners and attacking first. The Italian served well in the opening set.
He provided an early break in the first game of the duel and delivered another at 3-1 to extend the gap. World no. 2 held at 15 in the eighth game to wrap up the first part of the duel and gain a boost.
Sinner saved a break point in the second game of the second set. He broke Learnen in the fifth game and saved the second break point in the next one to forge a 4-2 advantage.
Jannik broke again for a 5-2 lead and fired a service winner on a match point to seal the deal and move over the top.

Djokovic learns fate in new home as Sabalenka addresses behaviour
Express Sport brings you the latest tennis news from the Paris Masters.
We’re reaching the business end of the Paris Masters, as eight players become four in the French capital. Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming favourite to lift the trophy after Carlos Alcaraz was dumped out by Cameron Norrie in the Spaniard’s opening match. Norrie was then beaten by Valentin Vacherot, whose amazing 10-match winning streak at Masters 1000 level came to an end when he lost to Felix Auger-Aliassime.
Canadian star Auger-Aliassime will face Alexander Bublik in the semis. Bublik defeated Alex de Minaur, who is among those to have already qualified for the year-end ATP Finals. Sinner is through to his first Paris Masters semi-final after beating Ben Shelton. He’ll face defending champion Alexander Zverev, who survived a tough match against Daniil Medvedev.
Novak Djokovic is not involved in the Paris Masters, having decided to skip the event for the second year in a row, but he has learned his fate in the draw of next week’s ATP 250 in Athens. And over in Riyadh, the WTA Finals are about to get underway.
