After the match, Sinner had a message for Tien<\/a> and given the potential the youngster has, the pair will almost certainly do battle again in the future. <\/p>\n Sinner has had to tweak some things since losing the US Open<\/a> final to Carlos Alcaraz<\/a>, but now he looks firmly in the zone to finish the season with a flourish. <\/p>\n Sinner has now won 18 of his 21 titles on hard courts, and that is quite remarkable. <\/p>\n After losing the US Open final in September, Sinner went back to the practice court and began working on some bits and pieces ahead of the Asian swing. <\/p>\n Clearly, they have paid dividends, with Sinner now on course to return to the world number one spot. <\/p>\n Speaking in his press conference ahead of his opening match at the Shanghai Masters, he admitted he has been forced to work on some things after his latest Grand Slam defeat. <\/p>\n He said: \u201cYeah, I mean, I\u2019m not the only one who is changing. If you ask every player, every player is changing stuff and trying to get better. You know, whatever we try to do, it\u2019s not crazy steps, just trying to adjust a couple of things, trying to get better as a player, like everyone else does.<\/p>\n \u201cYeah, I mean, that\u2019s it. Certain shots that worked slightly better than the months before, certain shots we can still improve. But it\u2019s also normal, and I\u2019m just looking forward to having as many matches as possible in every tournament. <\/p>\n \u201cThis also gives me the chance to try as many things as possible. So, let\u2019s see, but, yeah, we are quite happy with the work we are doing.\u201d<\/p>\n Jannik Sinner makes claim about the ATP Tour scheduling<\/p>\n![\"Jannik](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/GettyImages-2238688817-1024x683.jpg\")
