Anisimova collapsed to the hard court in victory, lying on her back and putting her hands over her face. Anisimova began ruthlessly, winning the first set in 23 minutes without dropping a game. A defiant Noskova found her feet in the second set, breaking early and powering to a 5-2 lead before closing out. The two went toe-to-toe in the decider until Anisimova broke for a 4-2 lead, digging deep to reach the finish line with a winner on the first match point. It's been a stellar season for the world number four, who was also runner-up at Wimbledon. This time last year, Anisimova was at world no. 43. Anisimova dumped out second seed Gauff in the Beijing semi-finals, thrashing the two-time Grand Slam winner 6-1, 6-2 in 58 minutes.

Sinner wins 21st career title after beating American teen in China Open final

Jannik Sinner survived a scare to sink French qualifier Terence Atmane 6-4, 7-5, 6-0 at the China Open on Saturday (Sep 27) as Iga Swiatek launched her title bid. The world number two Italian Sinner will face 57th-ranked Fabian Marozsan of Hungary in the Beijing quarter-finals.&nbsp;"It was a very tough match today," four-time Grand Slam champion Sinner said. "I felt like he was serving great."&nbsp;Sinner said that he lost a bit of concentration during the second set but quickly recovered to steamroll past the 68th-ranked Atmane in the deciding set.&nbsp;"I started off very well in the third set, then I saw (Atmane) struggling a bit physically.&nbsp;"It's not how you want to win a match, but very happy to be again in the next round."&nbsp;Atmane declared it would be a fight with two aces in the first game and made Sinner work for the first set. Atmane sent down six more aces in the second and broke the 24-year-old Sinner to force a deciding set. With the Frenchman flagging, Sinner raced to victory.&nbsp;In the women's draw, Swiatek breezed past home player Yuan Yue, cruising into round three with a 6-0, 6-3 victory.&nbsp;The world number two from Poland next faces Colombia's Camila Osorio, ranked 83rd.&nbsp;Swiatek broke early to set the tone for an ultimately one-sided match against Yuan, winning the first set without dropping a game when the wildcard from China fired long.&nbsp;Cheered on by her home crowd, the world no. 110 made a better fist of it in the second set, but Swiatek wrapped things up when Yuan returned into the net.&nbsp;Swiatek, who came to the Chinese capital after winning the title in Seoul, gave kudos to her opponent afterwards.&nbsp;"She was reading the court pretty well," Swiatek said. "It wasn't easy, and every game was tight."&nbsp;The six-time major champion is the top seed in Beijing after world number one Aryna Sabalenka withdrew with injury.&nbsp;Swiatek won the prestigious WTA 1000 tournament in 2023 but missed the competition last year, citing personal matters.
