Overview

• Jannik Sinner won his first match since serving a three-month doping ban, defeating Mariano Navone 6-3, 6-4 at the Italian Open in Rome.
• The victory extended Sinner's winning streak to 22 matches, with his last defeat dating back to October 2024.
• Sinner's suspension, which ended on May 4, stemmed from accidental clostebol contamination, a case resolved through a settlement with WADA earlier this year.

• Sinner is set to face Jesper De Jong in the third round as he builds momentum ahead of the French Open later this month.
