    American Ashlyn Krueger: Italy's top-ranked Jannik Sinner came back to defeat Nicolas Jarry from Chile 4-6, 6-3, 6-1, while Chinese player Wei Sijia cruised into the second round of the China Open here on Thursday.

    "Here is a very special tournament. The support always means so much to me," the reigning China Open men's singles champion Sinner said after the match. "Obviously, starting every tournament is not easy. He [Jarry] was serving really well. Then in the second set, I managed to break him early, which made me confident to win the game."

    The 20-year-old Wei beat Elena-Gabriela Ruse of Romania 6-4, 7-6 (6), and she was the only Chinese player to claim victory on Thursday, reports Xinhua. "I didn't perform well last year, so after a whole year of training, I hope I can attain new heights," Wei noted. "My first win at China Open means a lot. Many fans came to cheer for me, and I was really excited. I tried to seize the victory with my utmost effort."
