ATP Italian Open: Top seed and current world No. 1 Jannik Sinner secured a straight-sets victory in his comeback match, defeating Argentina's Mariano Navone 6-3, 6-4 in the second round of the ATP Italian Open on Saturday.

The Italian had served a three-month ban for his two doping offences after accepting the punishment following a case resolution agreement with the World Anti-Doping Agency in February this year. He tested positive for clostebol in March 2024.

Sinner's doping ban officially ended on May 5. As the top seed in Rome, he received a first-round bye and made his debut on clay this season, reports Xinhua.
