Beijing, September 29, 2025: Italy’s world No. 2 Jannik Sinner continued his impressive run at the China Open, securing a place in the semi-finals for the third year in a row. On Monday, Sinner defeated Hungary’s Fabian Marozsan in straight sets, 6-1, 7-5, completing the match in one hour and 19 minutes.

Sinner will face third seed Alex de Minaur in the semi-finals, keeping his perfect 10-0 career record against the Australian intact. “Generally, I’m very happy with today’s performance,” Sinner said after the match. “Every match is different. Let’s see what’s coming.”

Sinner dominated the first set, while the second set saw Marozsan briefly lead 5-4. Sinner then won the next three games convincingly, dropping only one point, to seal his victory.

In the women’s draw, top seed Iga Swiatek advanced to the last 16 after Colombia’s Camila Osorio retired due to injury, following a 6-0 first-set loss. Swiatek will next face American player Emma Navarro.

Other notable winners included Ukraine’s Marta Kostyuk and Russia’s Mirra Andreeva. Andreeva, the fourth seed, defeated Spain’s Jessica Bouzas 6-4, 6-1, while Kostyuk beat Belarus’ Aliaksandra Sasnovich 6-4, 6-2. This sets up a potential semi-final clash between Kostyuk and Andreeva.

The China Open continues to feature top international tennis talent, with both the men’s and women’s semi-finals shaping up to be exciting encounters.
