Jannik Sinner: Tennis star’s doping ban explored
Some top players continue to believe that sinners are treated preferentially for their identities.
Both the International Tennis Integrity Bureau (ITIA) and WADA frankly rejected any suggestions.
But it’s obvious that the sinner and five-time women’s main champion Iga Swiatek was suspended for one month last year after testing positive for the heart drug trimetazidine.
“Most players think it’s fair,” said Novak Djokovic, 24-time Grand Slam champion.
“If you’re a top lawyer, it seems that if you’re a top player, you can almost impact the results.”
Sina’s lawyer said he believes the swift resolution of the case comes down to adopting an “unusual” legal attitude.
“Starting with the first day (Jannik), he didn’t challenge the tests, he didn’t challenge the rules,” Singh told BBC Sport.
“He accepted, though it was a trace – it was one billionth of Cram – he accepted the responsibility that was taken in his body.
“So we didn’t waste time and money on all these challenges, and traditionally defense lawyers would throw the kitchen sink into it.
“We are just focusing on the evidence of what actually happened, and when we do that, we succeed in doing it and showing what’s going on.”
Singh also knew that the timing of the ban was as good as possible.
“We can’t get rid of the fact that you can’t choose these things to happen,” he said.
“So the fact that Wada is close to us, there were no Grand Slams in the next three months, which in my opinion was to make their offer more attractive.”
Several players believe the timing is suspicious, and Britain’s Liam Broady said it affected the sinner’s career “as few as possible”.
When asked why the deal is now, Wenzel insists that it is not considered on the tennis calendar.
“Because of the timing of the CAS program, it happened to be decided on February 14 or February 15, whatever the last Friday was,” Wenzel said. “It was a very late night and it took effect immediately, so that’s the timing,” he said. The reason.”
Professional Tennis Players Association (PTPA) – an organization co-founded by Djokovic, aimed at increasing the strength of players – believes that “transparency”, “process” and “consistency” are lacking in the system.
“In fact, the assumed case discretion covers only tailored transactions, unfair treatment and inconsistent rulings,” the PTPA said in a statement.
“It’s time to make a change.”
Three-time Grand Slam champion Stan Wawrinka wrote on social media that he said he no longer believes in a cleaning sport”.
