11:41 URHR – Match Baggent Beer – Jannik Sinner reached the quarter -finals in a highly competitive match against Terence Atmane at the China Open. After a sovereign first sentence, which the South Tyrolean won 6: 4, he stumbled into the second set.

10:13 a.m. – Match loss Seidel – The game of Ella Seidel in Beijing ran similarly quickly, but unfortunately from the German perspective, the Hamburg native was the victim in this case. In two clear sentences (1: 6, 1: 6), the 20-year-old had to give up the Ukrainian Marta Kostyuk.

On Thursday, Seidel had caused a sensation with a victory over the favorite Polish Magdalena, now Kostyuk-on the WTA tour one of the best friends of the German Eva Lys-turned out to be one number too big.
9:32 a.m. -Clara Tauson’s negative series continues: The 22-year-old Danish failed at the WTA-1000 tournament in Beijing in the opening round of the world ranking 82. Zeynep Sönmez from Turkey. After 2:22 hours, Tauson had to give up 4: 6, 6: 2, 3: 6 and thus suffered a further setback in the fight for the qualification for the WTA finals.
During the game, Tauson apparently had herself treated medically due to breathing problems and was only able to call up her usual level in phases. After a weak start with an early 0: 4 deficit, the Danish fought back for a short time, but still narrowly lost the first set.
In the second round, Tauson then looked like replaced, dictated the action with powerful service and clever game structure and equalized to the 1-1 after sentences. But in the crucial round, Sönmez took control. Despite a late rebreak, Tauson no longer found the way and said goodbye to Beijing disappointed.
8:17 UHR – Match Bagnek Swiatk -IGA Swiatek started the competition at the WTA-1000 tournament in Beijing. In her opening match in round two, the Polish won 6: 0, 6: 3 against local hero Yue Yuan. After only 76 minutes, the world ranking listen converted her match ball.

Especially in the first sentence, Swiatek gave her opponent no chance: Yuan was only able to achieve one point when the favorite was served and made numerous unchecked mistakes. The Chinesin succeeded in a surprising break at the beginning of the second round, but Swiatek countered immediately and controlled the game to the end.
In the next round, the 22-year-old meets Camila Osorio from Colombia, who surprisingly prevailed against Anna Kalinskaya.
6:54 a.m. – One of the top players in Beijing will start in a few minutes: Iga Swiatek will deal with local hero Yue Yuan today. The Chinese recently came up with good results in Cincinnati and surprised Diana Shnaider, among other things, but Swiatek is clearly favored.
6:32 a.m. -The American Taylor Fritz emphasized that a Grand Slam title can only lead to Carlos Alcaraz or Jannik Sinner. On Friday, the world ranking fifth at the Japan Open said that he could not hope that the two dominating players will be releasing early.
„I have to be able to beat one of them on a Grand Slam Day“, Said the 26-year-old, who reached the US Open final last year, but lost to Sinner there. Alcaraz and Sinner denied every Grand Slam final this season and thus impressively underpinned their supremacy.
Fritz, who stands in Tokyo after a 7: 5, 7: 6 (4) victory over Nuno Borges in the quarter-finals, also referred to his recent experience at the Laver Cup, where he was able to defeat Alcaraz. A possible re -duel with the Spaniard is in the final of the Japan Open.
However, the American knows that chances, as with the US Open 2023, when both Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic left early, will be rare in the future: “If you want to get to the final, you have to pass one of these guys.“
