Jannik Sinner Wins China Open in Straight Sets over American Tien Ahead of Shanghai Masters
Jannik Sinner overcame an illness causing fluid loss to win his third title of 2025 at the China Open, maintaining a nine-match winning streak on hard courts.
- On Wednesday, Oct. 1, 2025, Jannik Sinner captured his third title of the season at the China Open 2025 in Beijing, beating Learner Tien 6-2, 6-2 in the final.
- Despite insisting 'it's nothing serious,' Sinner said he had diarrhoea in the past few days and lost fluids during the press conference.
- On Tuesday, Sinner beat Alex de Minaur, his 11th straight win over the Australian opponent, and that 6-4, 3-6, 6-2 result sent him to a ninth straight hard‑court final.
- The win netted Jannik Sinner a $751,075 champion's check, pushed his career prize money past $49,000,000, and secured a top 40 debut after the rankings update.
- Sinner will now turn his attention to Shanghai, where he enters the second round against Tristan Schoolkate or Daniel Altmaier, with Carlos Alcaraz absent from Shanghai making him the favourite.
