Jannik Sinner Withdraws from Shanghai Masters Due to Ongoing Knee Injury

Jannik Sinner has announced his withdrawal from the upcoming Shanghai Masters as he continues to recover from a knee injury. The world number one has been sidelined since his victory at Wimbledon on July 12 and has missed the North American hard court swing, including the US Open and the ongoing ATP 500 event in Beijing.

The 25-year-old Italian was expected to make his return during the Asian tour but has decided to delay his comeback. His absence from the Shanghai tournament raises concerns about his fitness as he has not played since winning at Wimbledon.

As Sinner withdraws, Alexander Zverev is making headlines after winning his quarter-final match in Beijing, further emphasizing the competitive landscape amidst Sinner's absence.
