Despite the fact that a month ago the International Agency for Tennis Integrity (AIT) decided to acquit the tennis player after testing positive for Clostebol at the Masters 1000 in Indian Wells, this Saturday The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) announced that they have filed an appeal.
In its statement, the agency “considers that the conclusion of innocence or negligence is not correct in light of the applicable standards” and, Because of this, “WADA is requesting a suspension period of one to two years” for the world number 1, without invalidating the results of his positive controls, including his victory at the US Open.
“As this matter is now pending before the CAS, WADA has no further comment at this time.” he settled.
We remember that the Sinner always defends his innocence, and even He fired his physical trainer and his physiotherapist.
