The Asian tour will continue to heat up with exciting matches featuring some of the world's top tennis players. Jannik Sinner will pursue a medal upgrade at the China Open against Terence Atmane, a remarkable player who impressed at Cincinnati last month with his fast and powerful style of play.
Meanwhile, reigning China Open champion Carlos Alcaraz has chosen to compete at the Japan Open this season, marking his debut at the ATP 500 event in Tokyo. His second-round opponent is Zizou Bergs; however, it remains uncertain if the world No. 1 will play due to a significant injury sustained during his opening match against Sebastian Baez nearly two days ago.
While the men's China Open is an ATP 500 event, the women's tournament is part of the prestigious WTA 1000 series, gathering the top female tennis stars—except Aryna Sabalenka, who is sidelined by injury. On September 27, Iga Swiatek, Jessica Pegula, Zheng Qinwen, Naomi Osaka, and Emma Raducanu will all play their first matches at the tournament, having received seedings and byes through the first round, facing manageable opponents.
