Sinner disqualification, a very violent announcement shakes the world of blue tennis player. Incredible breaking news and resounding new controversy.
Jannik Sinner is still awaiting the decision of the Tas in Lausanne on the appeal filed by Wada after his doping acquittal. The Italian tennis player, world number one, was found infinitesimally positive for Clostebol, so those in charge decided not to proceed with disqualification.
Just so, in our opinion, partly because there was no desire on Sinner’s part to circumvent the rules and especially because he had no benefit from this situation. A situation that, of course, should have ended long ago and instead still stands, with a Sinner who obviously cannot fully enjoy all the successes that came in 2024. Since the news of this, first acquittal, there have been several tennis players or former ones who have attacked Jannik: Nick Kyrgios and Yevgeny Kafelnikov have been the most “assiduous” in this fight. And it is precisely the latter who has turned up the heat in recent hours.
Squalifying Sinner, Kafelnikov on the attack
“Sometimes I wonder, but why the hell didn’t I use steroids my whole career. So maybe instead of 170 matches a year I could have gotten to play maybe 300?” the former tennis player wrote on his own X profile. who then continued in this vein, also putting in Swiatek, who was also disqualified after another doping case.
“There should be a lifetime disqualification for anyone caught using banned substances! No excuses and zero tolerance, no matter who you are. The saddest part of all this is that young and up-and-coming players (12-16 years old) look at their idols and think maybe it’s OK to use steroids in the future and get away with it. Current players set a bad example for the younger generation.” “I was tested 15-20 times a year (from 1996 to 2002) during competitions and also off-season. Clearly you have no idea what you are talking about,” he finally responded to those who tried to tell him that when he played the controls were much softer.
