Jannik Sinner: Italy's tennis hero and the shadows of the doping allegations!
In a glamorous moment for the Italian tennis star Jannik Sinner, he was honored by Boris Becker, the three -time Wimbledon winner. Sinner, only 23 years old, catapulted himself at the top of the world rankings after overtaking the legendary Novak Djokovic in June. With impressive victories at the Australian Open and the US Open, the South Tyrolean has won its first two Grand Slam titles and thus secured a place in tennis history.
"To be honest, I'm not really surprised," said Becker, who praised Sinner's extraordinary determination. He is convinced that Sinner can stay number one for a long time. Becker, who himself led the world rankings in 1991, received the honor from an enthusiastic audience that had gathered in the hall to celebrate Alexander Zverev's upcoming appearance at the ATP finals.
a shadow over the success
Despite his success, Sinner is faced with challenges. After two positive doping tests, of which he was acquitted, he still threatens a lock. The World-Anti-Doping Agency Wada has appealed to the International Sports Court CAS in Lausanne, which further complicated. On Sunday evening, Sinner started the annual tournament in Turin with a clear two -set success against Australian Alex de Minaur. On Tuesday at 8:30 p.m. (Sky) he will compete against the American Taylor Fritz to underpin his favorite role in his home.| Details | |
