World number one Jannik Sinner was cleared of wrongdoing after twice testing positive for a banned substance in March.
The World Anti-Doping Agency has appealed against the decision to clear world number one Jannik Sinner of blame after he twice tested positive for a banned substance.It has appealed to the Court of Arbitration for Sport and says Sinner should be banned for "between one and two years".He was cleared of any wrongdoing after twice testing positive for low levels of a metabolite of clostebol - a steroid that can be used to build muscle mass - during the Indian Wells tournament in March.
The ITIA accepted Sinner's explanation that Naldi had applied an over-the-counter spray - widely available in Italy - which contained clostebol to treat a cut on Sinner's hand. An independent tribunal ruled that Sinner was not to blame, but stripped him of his ranking points and prize money for reaching the Indian Wells semi-finals.Who will dazzle Mama Ru, and who will ‘sashay away’?Denied!
