Jannik Sinner was eventually forced into a three-month break due to a doping ban. The world No.1 tennis player returns on 4 May at Italian Open.
World number one men’s tennis player Jannik Sinner will be making his return from a three-month doping ban in Rome on 4 May. However, there was a time the Italian felt he should walk away from the sport. Those thoughts came to Sinner’s mind when he defended his Australian Open crown earlier this year.
Sinner
accepted a three-month ban in February after a settlement with the World Anti-Doping Agency, who had appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport against an independent tribunal’s decision in August to clear him.
The Italian had tested positive for anabolic agent clostebol which Sinner said entered his system from a member of his support team through massages and sports therapy.
