WADA Considers Appeal in Jannik Sinner Doping Case
News summary

The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) is considering an appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) following the decision by the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) not to disqualify Italian tennis player Jannik Sinner after two positive doping tests for the anabolic steroid clostebol. Sinner, who claims the substance entered his system through a spray used by his physiotherapist, has avoided sanctions despite the positive tests in March. The ITIA found no evidence of intentional doping, leading to an independent court's acquittal of Sinner. However, WADA retains the right to contest this outcome, as does the Italian Anti-Doping Agency. Criticism of the ITIA's decision has emerged from figures like Australian player Nick Kyrgios, who argues that any positive test should warrant a two-year suspension. Following the doping tests, Sinner forfeited prize money and ranking points from the Indian Wells tournament, but he remains the top-ranked player in men's singles.
