Italy’s Jannik Sinner had to deal with a bit of illness during the China Open quarterfinal against Grigor Dimitrov.

The 22-year-old won the last-eight tie of the competition with a score of 6-4, 3-6, 6-2 on Monday.

While doing that, he had to deal with some sickness as he vomited in the trash can and was weirdly recorded by the cameraman as well.

Sinner is now set to face the current world number two Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz in the semifinal of the event on Tuesday.
