New blizzard on Sinner: controversy over some releases in the immediacy of his positivity does not subside. This time there are others in the crosshairs
From August onward, since the news about doping affecting Jannik Sinner came out publicly, there have been many comments accompanying these months. And some colleagues have even taken sides against the Italian tennis player.
Let’s not go into the details of the story, we all know it and we are all waiting for a response from the Tas in Lausanne after Wada appealed the acquittal. Here we reiterate another concept, that of colleagues who targeted Jannik. One of these was Denis Shapovalov. The Canadian tennis player, then on his own X profile had written this, “Different rules for different players.” It was a message that immediately went viral and set off all the fans, especially those of the Italian, who decided to respond to it in a hard-nosed manner. Perhaps too much – we know, social media in some cases is dangerous – and Shapovalov precisely returned to the matter.
New blizzard on Sinner: his fans in the crosshairs
” A few days ago – we read verbatim on the very well-informed portal tennisworlditalia.com – the North American tennis player held a conversation with friends Thanasi Kokkinakis and Dominic Thiem, discussing how some social media, such as X, often generate insults and hate comments. Denis in this case made reference to the very controversial post on Sinner, complaining about unkind treatment of him by Italian fans: “It seems that people on X just hate and rail against everyone. This was something that happened to me with Italian fans when I made a comment about the Sinner case. It has nothing against Jannik, for me it was just the principle that it should be the same for all players, but a lot of Italian fans like to think of me as crazy. “
In short, that’s it, proving, unfortunately, that when one comments in some way that not everyone likes, then the problem is always around the corner, unfortunately. On social, unfortunately, since there is also impunity in most cases and since many users use fake accounts, it is all more amplified. Everyone is free, it seems, to say what they want and write what they want. And honestly, in our humble opinion, this should be improved.
