Gauff won the next three points to hold for 5-5 before she closed out the set, and then dropped just one game in the remainder of the contest as she claimed a 7-5 6-1 victory to reach the last 16 in Beijing.

The world number four gave a lengthy explanation of why she stopped the point in a post on X and said it was "an unfortunate situation" but "out of my control", adding that Sun had understood and accepted her apology. Gauff then responded to a reply to her original post which included racist language.
