Sinner wins in return from doping ban on home turf
- Jannik Sinner marked his return from a three-month doping suspension with a victory over Mariano Navone during his home tournament in Italy this past weekend.
- Sinner accepted a three-month ban in February as part of a settlement with WADA after the International Tennis Integrity Agency cleared him for accidental steroid contamination in March 2024.
- The victory marked Sinner’s 22nd consecutive win since October, and he competed before a supportive home audience holding signs that read “Bentornato Jannik.”
- Sinner beat Navone 6-3, 6-4, and although the settlement let him avoid missing Grand Slams and return at his home tournament, some professionals questioned the leniency of his ban.
- Sinner's upcoming opponent is Jesper De Jong from the Netherlands, and the match could allow him to continue building momentum despite ongoing discussions surrounding his doping suspension.
