The double positive for clostebol Jannik sinner He continues to be talked about in tennis. The world number one did not receive a major sanction (he received a light punishment for losing the points and money won at the Masters 1,000 in Indian Wells) and this outraged some tennis players. Today, a few weeks later, the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is calling for more sanctions for Sinner and has appealed the decision to an independent International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) tribunal.
After this development of the case, the controversial Nick Kyrgios attacked Jannik Sinner. Specifically, the Australian tennis player reacted to a post on social networks in which Sinner’s first words were recorded after becoming aware of this resource from the World Anti-Doping Agency. “I am very disappointed and also surprised by this callto be honest, because we had three hearings. All three auditions were very positive for me. “I didn’t expect it,” Sinner commented about this novelty in his case.
Kyrgios’ reaction was to attack the Italian. “Ha ha ha. I hope the people running this don’t care that I’m number 1 and have money,” the Australian tennis player wrote, responding to this post with the words of Sinner. In this way, Nick Kyrgios showed that he continues to maintain his criticism of the Italian.
When Sinner’s double positive was revealed, which occurred during the 1000 Masters in Indian Wells, Kyrgios had already accused the Italian: “It’s ridiculous. Whether it’s accidental or planned. You test positive twice for a substance banned, steroids. You should be out for two years. Your performance has improved… Massage cream.
WADA calls for severe punishment for Sinner
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is calling for a severe sanction against Jannik Sinner, the current world number 1 tennis player, who tested positive for clostebol twice during a doping test. The Italian avoided a major sanction, such as spending months without being able to compete, and simply suffered a light punishment for losing the points and money won at the Masters 1,000 in Indian Wells, a tournament in which he gave this double positive.
For WADA, the body responsible for coordinating and monitoring the fight against doping in sport, Jannik Sinner must have a sporting sanction and therefore request a sentence of one to two years for the Italian tennis player. It should be remembered that an independent tribunal of the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) considered Sinner not guilty or negligent, which is why he continues to compete as if the two positives had not occurred .
This ITIA resolution is the one that is now being appealed against by the World Anti-Doping Agency, which actually presented the appeal on September 26, although it was announced this Saturday. Specifically, WADA filed an appeal before the International Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) in which it requests a sanction for Sinner of “between one and two years”.
