The Italian, however, did not give up a defect, which before the Arbitration Court in Lausanne (CAS) demanded even two years disqualification.
Eventually it stood at three months. The defect officially announced this in the statement. Sinner accepted the penalty and will not be able to play at the period at February 9 to May 4, 2025, and until April 13 even officially train.

The president also announced full support for his compatriot and hit the speaker again. – Jannik can now calmly plan his future with a great return at the tournament in Rome, where all overlays will welcome him with open arms, as he deserves. It remains regret for all that he had to go through and the time during which he can't play. At least I hope that this is the last such error of WADA, which already changes the rules that forced Jannik to accept this unfair compromise – summed up Italy.
