Sinner banned for 3 months which he unsurprisingly accepted immediately which means he can play the French.

Cheating **** shouldn't be allowed to play again, scum.

Agree. Disgraceful. N1 and won a few slams now but let him play after 3 months. Should be throwing the book at him to make a point.

He is cheating scum for his physio making a dumb error? Get a grip.

On a more positive note Fonseca won his first ATP final yesterday. Only a 250 but looks like he could be a GS contender in the next few years.
 
I’m always a bit skeptical for life time bans for being caught cheating but a year or two, split the difference 18 months even. It’s got to be a significant ban though.

This is just insane, I seen a few fellow pros have said it’s like banning a footballer over the summer. Completely pointless. Hes laughing.

The dumb physio isn’t a valid excuse either.
 
Let's get some facts:
1) the player is responsible for the actions of their team.
2) the drug he tested positive for was not performance enhancing
3) the level in his system was so low it would have had no noticeable effect.
4) It did not let him train harder/recover faster/play better.

So yes it was a positive test. Yes he is responsible. Yes he's been banned.

But the level of the offence does not warrant the same kind of ban as we've seen before with other players.

No bother, that’ll be why Rio was banned for 8 months for missing a drugs test for one reason or another, even when offered them a blood test afterwards.

I get that it’s a different sports but WADA have opened the doors for all sorts here.

He’s still flying quite under the radar of the British public really (hasn’t had a decent run at Wimbledon yet probably why) but he’s ranked no 7 in the world now so is an actual proper threat.

He was unplayable for most of last night. His serving in the first set was untouchable.
 
Jack Played really well, interesting what will Murray mound get called if he does get a run at Wimbledon - as nothing rhymes!

But Jack has done well here, but when your dad was once head of the LTA, i guess he would have opened doors that only others can dream of!
(not being nasty here, as any British success helps tennis in general in the UK. just pointing out the reality)
