BEIJING (AP) — Second-ranked Iga Swiatek won the China Open final with a near-perfect 6-2, 6-2 victory over Liudmila Samsonova on Sunday, for her tour-leading fifth title of the season. Swiatek's triumph, in her first visit to China, was her 16th career title and adds to her impressive 2023 haul that includes titles at Roland Garros, Doha, Stuttgart and Warsaw. Like her dominant defeat of third-ranked Coco Gauff in the semifinal, Swiatek's serve was again the telling difference in Sunday's final, denying Samsonova a single break point opportunity throughout the 69-minute match.

By AP News Published Oct 8, 2023 07:05 am LOSAIL, Qatar (AP) — Formula One drivers will have to change tires at least every 18 laps in the Qatar Grand Prix, which should make a three-stop strategy inevitable in the 57-lap race Sunday. The governing body, the FIA, is acting over concerns that the Pirelli tires are being damaged when cars run over the pointed 'pyramid' kerbs used at the Losail circuit. The ruling means cars will have to stop at least three times unless the race is cut short for any reason.
