Fairness Does Not Exist In Tennis, Says Kyrgios On Sinner’s Three-month Doping Ban
International Tennis Integrity Agency: "Fairness in tennis does not exist," exclaimed Australian tennis player Nicholas Kyrgios after it was announced that world No.1 Jannik Sinner has reached a settlement with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) which will see the Italian serve a three-month ban instead of a two-year suspension that the anti-doping body was seeking.
Sinner was found by an independent tribunal of the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) to bear no fault or negligence having twice tested positive for clostebol, a prohibited substance, in March 2024.
According to Sinner, the substance entered his system after coming in contact with a support staff member who had been applying an ‘over-the-counter spray’ which contained slight levels of clostebol. Repeated massages by the said support staff member resulted in contamination.
