Jannik Sinner hits an outrageous angle against Jiri Lehecka in Beijing. Incredible movement to get up to the drop shot. The softest little angle to turn the point on its head. What. A. Shot. 🇮🇹🦊
Jannik Sinner likely facing nervous wait until 2025 for doping appeal as saga rumbles on

Jannik Sinner will have to wait until early 2025 to learn the outcome of his WADA (World Anti-Doping Agency) appeal to CAS which was recently triggered.
Italian newspaper La Repubblica has claimed that the CAS ruling will not arrive until 2025 and not until February meaning that he will be able to play at the Australian Open in January. Albeit he will still have this case being a major talking point.
The newspaper also reported that the panel that will hear WADA's appeal will take arbitrators from all sides. Sinner is currently in action at the China Open and was playing when the appeal was announced to be happening.

The ITIA announced last month that Sinner would not receive a ban for failing two anti-doping tests in March with an independent tribunal ruling that he was not to blame. He tested positive for Clostebol and appealed a ban both times so it didn't see the light of day. This was until last month when it was confirmed that he bore no fault or negligence.
It then took the tennis world by storm with verdicts from all sides. The tribunal accepted Sinner's explanation on how it entered his body. But it seems WADA think differently and want it to be heard higher up with a one to two year ban likely if the case is overturned.

- He's a Cool Dude (and very funny guy). Always fun to be in the presence of Tomasz. Something he mentioned here is what many who have coached at any level can relate to -- "the crazy parents committee". It relates to my coaching experiences in kid's sports. My #1 complaint about coaching kids is Problem Parents!! It can be a very abusive, even violent situation with many parents when it comes to their kid's sports. In the end, it was no longer worth the potential (all too common) altercations for me and I quit. But thanks to Tomasz, I now have a name for those (you?) people: The Crazy Parents Committee.mandoist26-09-2024

- Yes, the Ginger is right... 'you don't have to play'. And we are realizing the results of how players are affected by non-stop scheduling. Everything Iga first mentioned 2 years ago is now coming to fruition as far too many top WTA players cannot maintain their well-being. Therfor having to blow-off several tourneys. It's common sense -- the human body is not a machine! WTA's GREED and insensitivity is no joke.mandoist26-09-2024
