Novak Djokovic clinched his 102nd singles title at the China Open, marking the 21st year in which he has won at least one tournament. The 39-year-old defeated Alex de Minaur, who had to withdraw due to a left thigh injury, 7-6 (7-3), 0-1. Djokovic's 34-match winning streak at the China Open continued, with seven titles to his name there.
The Serb expressed that the trophy holds greater significance in Beijing, his only loss-free venue. The 24-time Grand Slam champion had only made it to his second final of the year this season, having lost the Australian Open final to Carlos Alcaraz earlier. Djokovic's victory comes after a series of physical and health challenges, most recently a tearful first-round exit at the US Open.
At 39, he remains the oldest player to win an ATP Tour-level title since Ken Rosewall in 1877, and his win will see him re-enter the world's top 10 rankings.
