Jannik Sinner Withdraws From the China Open because of Lingering Knee Injury
- On Friday, world number one Jannik Sinner withdrew from the China Open, citing a knee injury that continues to prevent his return to competition after missing the Grand Slam in New York.
- The 25-year-old Italian has not played since defending his Wimbledon title in July, missing multiple Masters events and the Grand Slam due to the ongoing knee injury.
- As the defending champion, Sinner defeated American Learner Tien last year to win the title and posted a video saying, "My knee is not quite where I want it to be."
- His withdrawal leaves Novak Djokovic and Zverev as headline attractions at the ATP 500 event, with the 39-year-old Serb returning to Beijing after an 11-year absence.
- The men's draw at the China Open runs from September 30 to October 6, followed by the ATP Masters tournament in Shanghai starting October 7.
