This is the final most tennis fans dream of. The biggest stars in tennis today clashed in the final. Carlos Alcaraz was the more successful in the end. In the decisive moments of the match, the Spaniard impressed with a change of shoes and, above all, a great reversal.

  • Beijing hosted the next round between Alcaraz and Sinner
  • The Spaniard defeated his rival after a thrilling
  • In the final tiebreak, he impressed with a change of footwear and a turn of speed

They entered the tournament in the Chinese capital as the main favourites. Jannik Sinner from the position of world number one and defending champion. Carlos Alcaraz as his biggest rival.

Throughout the tournament, Sinner added match after match to his winning streak. This eventually extended to number fifteen before the final, Alcaraz again progressed through the tournament more sovereignly. That’s also why it was difficult to determine a favourite before Wednesday’s final duel.

The match between the two tennis players, who have formed a much-watched rivalry, was certainly not boring. Alcaraz had a break advantage during the opening set but eventually lost in the shortened game.

In the second set, he blew the finish. Alcaraz held his serve despite the difficulties and leveled at 4:4. Then in the very next game he captured the Italian’s serve.

Alcaraz in the deciding set

Neither of the opening sets was a brief affair. The deciding set still surpassed both. For a long time the course resembled the opening set. Alcaraz lost the break lead and the set headed into shortened play.

His Italian rival took a 2:0 lead at this crucial point in the match. After that, Alcaraz decided to change shoes and from that point on, he only lost a single point.

The Spaniard once again defeated his Italian rival. For the third time this year. His reward is his 16th ATP title. All tennis fans would probably sign Sinner’s words. “I believe we will play a few more matches together,” the Italian concluded his description of the match.

They will have the opportunity soon enough. Both of Wednesday’s finalists are in the same part of the bracket for the biggest event of the season in Shanghai.
