Bu Yunchaokete has been a real revelation at the ATP Beijing by reaching the semis, although he had already been indicating his great level. The 22-year-old Chinese couldn't defeat Jannik Sinner, but he displayed flashes of great tennis and signed off on a fairly complete second set. In the press conference, the local player talked about the maturation of Chinese players. Do they turn professional later than other players like Sinner or Musetti? "I am very different from them. This is only my third year on the professional circuit as opposed to them. I can only speak from my perspective, but I started quite late, became a professional late. Sinner and Musetti started at a young age when they were teenagers. Then you see Jerry Shang, who is less than 20 years old and already has great achievements. I think it depends."

Likewise, he also wanted to send a message to young Chinese tennis players. "I wish perseverance and success in their professional careers to Chinese teenagers playing tennis. Being a professional player is very difficult; not many male players can do it. But in recent years, we are seeing more, whether they are children or teenagers. I believe there is a brighter future in China."
