Career

edit

Sun made his ATP main draw debut at the 2016 Chengdu Open, where he was granted a wildcard entry in the doubles draw alongside compatriot He Yecong. They were defeated in the first round by Raven Klaasen and Rajeev Ram in straight sets.

The following year, he was again given a wildcard at the 2017 Chengdu Open with partner Te Rigele, and again he would lose in the first round to Nenad Zimonjic and Santiago Gonzalez in straight sets.

In his third main draw appearance, he and partner Zhizhen Zhang were given a wildcard entry into the doubles draw of the 2018 ATP Shenzhen Open but lost in the first round to Marcin Matkowski and Nicholas Monroe.

His fourth and most recent ATP appearance (also his third at the tournament) was a wildcard entry into the doubles draw of the 2019 Chengdu Open pairing up with Wang Aoran, and to round up an 0–4 record he lost to Dominic Inglot and Austin Krajicek.

He was given a wildcard at the 2023 China Open partnering Zhou Yi. He received a wildcard in doubles partnering Li Zhe at the 2023 Rolex Shanghai Masters and also a qualifying wildcard in singles at the 2024 Rolex Shanghai Masters where he upset fourth seed Borna Ćorić in the first round of qualifying but lost in the second in straight sets to alternate player Ramkumar Ramanathan.[2][3][4]
