Jannik Sinner Cleared After Drug Test Controversy
News summary

World No. 1 Jannik Sinner recently revealed he tested positive for the banned steroid clostebol in two separate drug tests in March but was cleared of wrongdoing by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) due to contamination from a physiotherapist's treatment. The case has sparked outrage among fellow tennis players, including Denis Shapovalov and Liam Broady, who accuse the ITIA of applying double standards in doping sanctions. Sinner's situation is contrasted with other players, like Tara Moore, who faced lengthy suspensions despite similar circumstances. Although he maintains his innocence, Sinner has been stripped of ranking points and prize money from the Indian Wells tournament. His coach expressed gratitude for the absence of a ban, while critics argue that the leniency shown to Sinner sets a troubling precedent in the sport. The controversy continues to dominate discussions as Sinner prepares for the upcoming US Open.
