The ATP Beijing is celebrating, as it has just been announced that Jannik Sinner has signed a contract to play in the tournament until 2030. The organization ensures that they will have the current world number 1 for the next 4 years, during a week in which he will receive a large sum of money and which will serve as preparation for the Shanghai Masters 1000 each season.

So far, Sinner's performance in the tournament has been practically immaculate. In 2023, the player from San Candido debuted by lifting the title in a highly contested final against Daniil Medvedev. The following year, Carlos Alcaraz came to take the championship away from him after one of the best finals remembered in an ATP 500, and last year, Jannik took advantage of the Spaniard's departure to the ATP Tokyo to become champion again after defeating Learner Tien in the final.
Sinner's injury forces him to sign for one more year
This year Sinner has been unable to compete in the tournament due to injury. In fact, just yesterday he announced that he will miss the remainder of the season due to his right knee. This has also influenced the contract he signed, as initially his participation was only set to extend until 2029. However, as compensation for his absence in 2026 due to this physical problem, Jannik has signed for one more year.
It is suggested that the amount of money he will receive for playing in Beijing each year will be quite high, while Alcaraz has opted for the Tokyo tournament in recent years because the competition has also offered a large sum to prevent a single tournament from taking all the spotlight during that week.
