Wimbledon titleholder Iga Swiatek notched her 400th career win by defeating Camila Osorio at the China Open in Beijing, progressing to the fourth round on Monday. Swiatek, known for her consistent performance with 25+ victories in WTA-1000 events for three successive seasons, dominated Osorio with a 6-0, 1-0 retirement victory.
Expressing regret for her opponent’s early exit, Swiatek acknowledged Osorio’s effort while highlighting her own strong play in the match. The top-seeded Swiatek, fresh off a recent triumph at the Korea Open, is now set to face off against American Emma Navarro, who advanced after Lois Boisson retired in their match.
Elsewhere, fifth-seeded Jessica Pegula staged an impressive comeback by saving three match points to overcome Emma Raducanu in a thrilling 3-6, 7-6 (9), 6-0 victory. Pegula extended her winning record against Raducanu to 3-1. In additional third-round matchups, fourth-seeded Mirra Andreeva triumphed over Jessica Bouzas Maneiro, and Marta Kostyuk defeated Aliaksandra Sasnovich.
In the men’s division, top-seeded Jannik Sinner secured a spot in the semifinals by defeating Fabian Marozsan 6-1, 7-5. Sinner is set to face off against third-seeded Alex de Minaur, who advanced following Jakub Mensik’s first-set retirement due to injury.
Notably, Daniil Medvedev outplayed second-seeded Alexander Zverev with a 6-3, 6-3 victory, marking his 60th career semifinal appearance and his first since June. Medvedev’s recent win against Zverev adds to his achievements for the year.
In the Japan Open, top-seeded Carlos Alcaraz rallied from a set down to defeat Casper Ruud and secure his 66th win of the season. Alcaraz’s resilient performance sets up a final showdown against second-seeded Taylor Fritz, who ousted Jenson Brooksby with a commanding 6-4, 6-3 victory. Fritz previously defeated Alcaraz at the Laver Cup last week.
