    Tennis: Jannik Sinner Avoids Ban As Independent Panel Finds No Fault Or Negligence In Positive Dope Tests

    By IANS News August 20, 2024 • 21:28 PM View: 593
    International Tennis Integrity Agency: An independent tribunal appointed by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) has found no fault or negligence on the part of men's World No.1 Janik Sinner in the case of two dope tests he failed earlier this year. With the tribunal finding "No Fault or Negligence" in the case, Sinner will not face any period of suspension.

    The independent tribunal, convened by Sport Resolutions, also accepted Sinner's explanation that the two anti-doping tests resulted from an over-the-counter spray, that included the prohibited substance clostebol, used by his support staff who gave the Italian tennis player message and sports therapy. The ITIA had also found Sinner's explanation plausible and did not hand him a provisional suspension.

    Sinner was been found in breach of two Anti-Doping Rule Violations under the Tennis Anti-Doping Programme (TADP), having twice tested positive for the prohibited substance clostebol.
