Defending champion Sinner retired mid-match in the final.
After two blockbuster weeks, it was a rather tepid end to Cincinnati Open 2025, as Jannik Sinner retired mid-match against his rival Carlos Alcaraz to decide the men’s singles final. Trailing 0-5 in the first game, Sinner threw in the towel handing Alcaraz his first Cincinnati title.
The defending champion had not dropped a set heading into the finals but simply failed to find the court during the summit clash. The Italian was no man’s land, as Alcaraz sped to an early break, and kept dominating the battle. Leading 5-0, Sinner finally shook hands, admitting he was unable to play any further.
The North American swing now enters its final swing for the all-important US Open—the final Grand Slam of the season.
