“Now I I will leave this period behind Very demanding and very unfortunate”. So Jannik Sinner commented – through an official note – his positivity (but involuntary) to the doping for traces of Clostebol. “I will continue to do everything I can to ensure that continue to comply with the anti-doping program of Italy and I have a team around me that is meticulous in one’s own respect”.

There prohibited substance had been administered unintentionally during the Indian Wells tournament when his physiotherapist, Giacomo Naldi, had used a ointment to be able to treat an injured fingerHaving come into contact with Sinner’s skin during a massage, the tennis player was declared responsible for what has been done by his team. The investigation is now closed: the tennis player will not answer any additional questions about the case.

ATP note: “No negligence on Sinner’s part”
“We are encouraged from the fact that it was not found no fault or negligence by Jannik Sinner”, this is how the press release issued by the Association of Tennis Professionals opens (Atp) on the Sinner case. “We would also like recognize the robustness of the investigation process and the independent assessment of the facts under the Tennis Anti-Doping Programme (TADP), which allowed him to continue competing. This was a challenging matter for Jannik and his team and highlights the need for players and their entourages to exercise extreme caution when using products or treatments. Integrity is paramount in our sport.”

Sinner continued to play despite the checks: the reason
Jannik Sinner’s positivity dates back to last April: despite the checks, the tennis player has continued to play regularly. How was it possible? The reason it’s simple: as can be read in the Itia press release, in fact, “the player has the right to apply to an independent tribunal president appointed by Sport Resolutions to have the provisional suspension revoked” which is imposed after returning an Adverse Analytical Finding for an unspecified substance, in this case Clostebol. In this case, the world number 1 did appeal successfully against the provisional suspension and was therefore able to continue playing.
