Back on the ground, the sinner expressed his joy at returning to tennis after the World Anti -Doping Agency (AMA) suspended it as a result of a positive test for an anabolic steroid prohibited twice as a year ago.
“I didn’t want to do it at first, and it wasn’t a bit easy for me to accept it, because I know what really happened,” said Sinner. “But sometimes we have to choose the best in a very bad time, and that’s what we have done. So it’s over now. So I’m happy to play tennis again.”

Sinner, 23 years old, was tested positive for low levels of clostebol metabolite, a prohibited anabolic steroid that can be used for ophthalmological and dermatological use, in March 2024. Eight days after the Wells Indian tournament, Sinner was tested positive in an out -of -competition sample.
According to the initial results of the International Tennis Integrity Agency, Sinner explained that he had been tested positive after receiving a massage from a coach who had used an over -the -counter spray which contained Clostebol to treat a small injury after cutting his own finger.
While the AMA accepted the faultless explanation, the organization said that the three -month suspension was necessary because “an athlete is responsible for the negligence of those around them”.
