Novak Djokovic speaks about Jannik Sinner’s doping case

Novak Djokovic spoke again about the doping case that concerns Jannik Sinner, and he did so from Shanghai, where the ATP 1000 tournament began, in which the Italian will also take part. “We have a system that doesn’t work well, and people who don’t follow tennis notice that.” There are too many inconsistencies, too many government bodies involved», an attack on the complexity and confusion that dominates the anti-doping system in tennis.

Sinner, the ATP rankings: How long will he stay number 1? Alcaraz is world number 2, but Jannik’s top position is not in danger (at least until the end of the year)

But the Serbian champion, winner of 24 Grand Slam titles, also defended and praised Sinner: «The whole case surrounding him doesn’t help our sport at all. He has won all three appeals so far, it must be really hard for him, his team and his family.” Novak Djokovic commented on WADA’s decision to appeal against Itia’s acquittal of Jannik Sinner due to the positive Clostebol sample. “I hope we can get back to tennis.” What Jannik has done throughout this process is impressive. He plays at a very high level, winning a Grand Slam title and most of the matches he plays. This whole situation is not positive for tennis, I hope this case will be resolved as soon as possible. Whatever happens, I hope it will be decided in the shortest possible time.”
