The world No 1 and US Open champion defeated the 69th-ranked Russian Roman Safiullin 3-6, 6-2, 6-3 in Beijing.

La polémique dopage ne s'arrête pas, bien au contraire avec la demande de l'agence mondiale de dopage d'une suspension de 2ans, mais Jannik Sinner 🇮🇹 semble imperturbable, 57 victoires en 2024, 14 de suite.
