In an interview with Tennis Actu, the Frenchman Lucas Pouille has harshly attacked Jannik Sinner, after what happened around the Italian and his team in relation to the Clostebol doping-issue.
According to what the Frenchman reported, every tennis player is responsible for everything that enters the body, even when the mistake could be made by one of the team members.
“We are lost in the different governing bodies. In addition to those that govern this sector, the tennis circuit already includes the ATP, the WTA, the ITF and the Grand Slam tournaments. Jannik Sinner was acquitted by an independent tribunal and now the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has appealed to the CAS in Lausanne. Once again, we are going in so many different directions. We really don’t know what is happening.
Are there double standards? I would say so. Sinner was acquitted, good for him. I don’t think he took any substance intentionally. He is a tennis player that I like a lot and that I love watching when he plays, but personally when you sign the anti-doping documents you are responsible for everything that goes into your body. We are not talking about a small substance. He had a minimal amount of the substance in his body, but he remains lucky,” explained Pouille.
