Probability
43%

The 2026 ATP China Open (ATP 500, Qizhong National Tennis Center, Beijing) runs September 30 – October 6, 2026. Alexander Zverev is the clear tournament favorite as #1 seed after world #1 Jannik Sinner withdrew at short notice. Zverev recently won the 2026 US Open (his second Grand Slam title) and is in strong season form. His draw could feature a quarterfinal against Novak Djokovic (#6 seed). As #1 seed in a Sinner-free field, bookmaker odds imply ~42–45% title probability for Zverev. A separate open platform prediction already sees Zverev in the final. Risks: Auger-Aliassime (#2) and Medvedev (#3) as potential final opponents.
