New reports suggest Jannik Sinner’s doping case may involve deeper complexities. Leaked documents, cited by unnamed sources, allege the Italian’s team attempted to conceal details about the 2024 Clostebol contamination incident.
Claims include deleted communications and pressure on staff to sign confidentiality agreements.
Sinner’s former physiotherapist, Giacomo Naldi, remains absent from public engagements, fueling speculation. Sponsors like Nike have not commented, though insiders note “heightened scrutiny.” The player’s camp reiterates the contamination was accidental, citing WADA’s prior acknowledgment of no intent to cheat.
While Sinner’s three-month ban ended in May, allowing his return at the Italian Open, critics argue the case highlights inconsistent anti-doping enforcement.
No formal charges have been filed.
