In a stunning turn of events, Jannik Sinner withdrew from his 2025 Cincinnati Open final against Carlos Alcaraz late in the first set.
Throughout the first five games of the match, Sinner seemed to be struggling with what appeared to be the hot conditions. After going down 0-5 in the first set, Sinner then retired during a medical time-out (MTO), with chair umpire Mohamed Lahyani citing an illness while informing the stadium of the news.
As the defending champion sat teary-eyed, Alcaraz went over to console him in a show of sportsmanship.
During replays shown on the TennisTV broadcast, Sinner could be seen touching the lower left quadrant of his abdomen during a service game, a possible indication of the illness referenced by the commentary team.
