Carlos Alcaraz was crowned Cincinnati Open champion after Jannik Sinner was forced to retire in the first set of their final, with the Spaniard quick to comfort his rival

It was only the third time the Cincinnati Open men’s final ended in a retirement, and the first since 2011 when Novak Djokovic stopped playing in the second set because of a shoulder injury.

The Cincinnati Open men’s final will be played on Monday 18 August at 3pm local time (8pm UK time). The Cincinnati Open is being shown on Sky Sports Tennis in the UK. Viewers can also stream the match live on Now TV or Sky Go.
