Hurkacz reaches Chengdu final

Hubert Hurkacz came from a set down to beat Denis Shapovalov 6-7(8), 6-3, 6-4 and reach the final of the Chengdu Open.

The Polish fifth seed lost a tight opening set in a tiebreak but responded strongly in the second, breaking Shapovalov to level the match.

Hurkacz then maintained his advantage in the deciding set to complete the comeback and reach his 13th ATP Tour final. It is his first final since Geneva last year and his first of the 2026 season.

Hurkacz will face Spain's Alejandro Davidovich Fokina in the final. The second seed defeated Nikoloz Basilashvili 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 in the other semi-final.
