The China Open 2024 has been packed with high-quality tennis, as tennis stars light up the courts in Beijing. Let’s dive into some of the most thrilling moments from the tournament so far.

Carlos Alcaraz Hits 200 Wins

Carlos Alcaraz continues his impressive form, celebrating his 200th career win in style! The Spanish phenom breezed past Tallon Griekspoor in just 69 minutes with a commanding 6-1, 6-2 victory. Alcaraz, the winner of the French Open and Wimbledon this year, is the first man born in 2003 or later to notch up 200 wins.

Zhang Shuai’s Cinderella Story

Zhang Shuai, ranked way down at 595th, is turning heads and winning hearts with her incredible run at the China Open. Her latest triumph over Greet Minnen 6-2, 6-3 has kept her historic journey alive. Zhang had been winless for an astonishing 600 days prior to the ongoing China Open.

Buyunchaokete’s Stunning Upset

Chinese rising star Buyunchaokete stole the spotlight by taking down sixth seed Lorenzo Musetti in straight sets, 6-2, 6-4. This victory secures his place in the quarterfinals, making him only the second Chinese men’s singles player to ever do so at the China Open. His performance has been one of the standout moments of the tournament.
