Jannik Sinner was ‘very fragile’ as he speaks out in first interview since doping ban
World No. 1 Jannik Sinner admitted he was left “very fragile” after his doping ban in his first interview since, having been handed a three-month suspension earlier this year. Sinner was slapped with the ban on February 15 which will end on May 4, a fortnight before the French Open.
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) had appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport after an independent panel cleared Sinner following an International Tennis Integrity Agency probe. Jannik had two positive doping tests in which low levels of clostebol, a banned substance, were found in his system last year.
