Tennis number one Sinner has doping hearing at sport court fixed for April

The Court of Arbitration for Sport will hear his allegations of doping on April 16 and 17, according to the Lausanne-based organization’s announcement on Friday.

After Sinner tested positive for the banned steroid clostebol twice in March of last year, the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) granted him a clearance.

No parties requested a public hearing, and it will be held behind closed doors, according to a CAS statement.

The ITIA granted the player’s explanation that the drug entered his system when his physio administered a spray of it to treat a cut, and then administered him with massage and sport therapy.

The 23-year-old asked the Australian Open’s spokesman if he knew when a verdict was due on the day before the match. “I know exactly as much as you guys know.

” We are in a stage where we don’t know many, many things. “

Sinner acknowledged that the scandal was still fresh in his mind as he prepares for a tough first-round matchup with Chilean Nicolas Jarry in Melbourne Park.

” You think about this, of course, “he said”. If I told you I forgot, I would lie.

“I’ve had it for a while, and I’ve had it for a while.” However, it is what it is. I’m attempting to prepare for the Grand Slam. Let’s see how it goes”.

Sinner asserted that he had always been “very, very cautious with every medication I take, even what I eat.”

“When the bottle is open, I throw it away, I take a new one”, he said.

“In my mind, I know exactly what happened, and that’s how I block it]out].

” I haven’t done anything wrong, that’s why I’m still here. That’s why I’m still playing. “

ATP chairman Andrea Gaudenzi has insisted Sinner’s case was” run by the book”.

” I genuinely believe there has been a lot of misinformation out there, which is unfortunate, “Gaudenzi told the Australian Associated Press in a recent interview.

” I am 100-percent sure that there has not been any preferential treatment. The ITIA has run the procedure according to the rules and the book.

Novak Djokovic, the former world no. 1, claimed he believed Sinner when he claimed he had been contaminated, but the 24-time Grand Slam champion claimed that players had been ” kept in the dark” throughout the entire process.

” I’ve been really frustrated, as have most of the other players, that we’ve been kept in the dark for five months, “Djokovic said.

” He]Sinner] received the news]of the positive tests] in April and the announcement was not until August, just before the US Open.
