Jannik Sinner Faces Uncertainty as WADA Considers Appeal on Doping Case

Despite being cleared by an independent tribunal, the World Anti-Doping Agency has three weeks to decide on an appeal that could jeopardize Sinner's US Open title.

Jannik Sinner tested positive for the steroid clostebol in March, but was cleared by the ITIA, which accepted his explanation of unintentional contamination from his physiotherapist.
Despite the tribunal's decision, WADA has announced it still considers the case open and has a 21-day window to appeal the ruling.
Sinner's US Open celebrations are on hold as he awaits further clarification on the doping investigation.
The Italian tennis star has received significant support from fellow players like Matteo Berrettini and former pro Paolo Bertolucci, who believe in his innocence.
Sinner has had a stellar 2024 season, winning six titles, including the US Open, but the doping controversy continues to cast a shadow over his achievements.
