"unintentional"

tell that to player ranked 500 who would be suspended for a year haha

different rules for different players....same thing across all sports

Thoughts @samsncharge99 @dougtushyterror @jjgold and other tennis guys?

Sinner probably shouldn’t have used this coupon

Blame it to your physiotherapist or to your interpreter. What else?

Thoughts @samsncharge99 @dougtushyterror @jjgold and other tennis guys?

he beat Djokovic in Australia and won a match in Indian Wells this year 2 days after failing the test

he lost the ranking points and prize money, but no suspension.

if this was djokovic it's national news and all the Nadal lovers will be murdering him

Sinner is world #1, young talent and they don't want to ruin the image

Track and field athletes have been banned for similar. Same with other sports, including tennis.

Social media blowing up over double standard for Sinner

They already said it was some sort of mixup


Even meat products have steroid

What happened to Simona Halep? she was suspended and appealed it forever. She played like 1-2 matches and then injured again after returning

tennis twitter is killing sinner right now

and ATP in general. no consistency in rules, processes, and no equality

 

[jjgold]

Nobody cares he’s playing us open

Or if the player was Russian or from a country supporting Russia in their war
