Tennis: Thiem reaches final of China Open

World No. 5 Dominic Thiem may not have brought his best stuff on Saturday but found a way to stick around against Karen Khachanov in the China Open semifinals. Down for most of the match, Thiem rallied for a 2-6, 7-6 (5), 7-5 victory and in turn, became the fifth player to clinch a place at the ATP Finals in London—his fourth consecutive qualification.
