Jannik Sinner's 2026 season has been nothing short of extraordinary, and the Italian superstar is showing no signs of slowing down as his schedule for the Asian hard-court swing comes into focus. The five-time Grand Slam champion has entered nine tournaments so far this year, winning six of them, a run that includes a Wimbledon title defense and an unprecedented sweep of the first five Masters 1000 events he entered.
After skipping the Canadian Open in Montreal, Sinner will compete at the Cincinnati Open before heading to New York for the US Open, which runs from August 30 through September 13. Once the final Grand Slam of the year wraps up, he will bypass the Laver Cup in London, a team event he has chosen to skip again, and travel directly to Beijing for the China Open starting September 28.
This will mark Sinner's fourth appearance at the ATP 500 event, and his record there is remarkable. He won the title in 2023 and has strong history at the venue overall. Speaking about his return, Sinner described Beijing as a place with a special meaning for him and his team, calling those victories unforgettable and expressing genuine excitement about the tournament's twentieth anniversary edition.
Beyond Beijing, Sinner is widely expected to compete at the Shanghai Masters the following week, an event he won in 2025. The European indoor season will then beckon, with Vienna looking likely before a potential Paris Masters appearance. Turin's ATP Finals, where he is seeking a third consecutive title, will serve as his season finale.
TennisDraw users chasing the right bracket picks for the China Open will want to take Sinner's dominant record in Beijing very seriously.
