Record-breaking Jannik Sinner . The South Tyrolean tennis player defeated the Spanish phenomenon Alcaraz in two sets (7-6, 6-1) in Beijing, gaining the pass to the final and rising to where only Panatta had reached, 47 years ago.

With this victory, in fact, Sinner becomes number 4 in the world : a position that only his illustrious predecessor had occupied in the past, way back in 1976.

Now the doors to the final of the tournament are opening wide for the Italian: he will have his bête noire, Medvedev , ahead of him.
