Former world number one racket, Russian tennis player Yevgeny Kafelnikov, assessed the situation after the acquittal of Jannik Sinner, the leader of the current ranking of the Italian Professional Tennis Association, who did not receive a serious punishment for violating the anti-doping regulations. “Championship.com”.
“By removing the points, they essentially admitted that Sinner had taken something that was prohibited. Doping is evil. I don’t condone it in any way: in small or large doses. “If you did something prohibited and crossed a certain line, whether by accident or not, you should be punished for it,” Kafelnikov said.
August 20th on the official website of the institution for combating negative incidents in tennis (ITIA) It was published Sinner had previously avoided disqualification due to two positive doping tests. The organization reportedly found no serious reasons to disqualify Sinner.
“Sinner’s first test at the Masters tournament in Indian Wells showed a low concentration of clostebol. A second sample eight days later showed the same result. Sinner’s results from that tournament, prize money and ranking points have been cancelled, the ITIA said in a statement.
