Nick Kyrgios has kept up his criticism of world No. 1 Jannik Sinner. He said that the doping scandal is getting “more cringe every day.” The 2022 Wimbledon runner-up has not held back his thoughts on the issue.
Jannik Sinner, a three-time Grand Slam winner, is serving a three-month ban. He made a deal with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) after failing two tests for the anabolic steroid clostebol last year.
Just hours before quitting his first-round match at Indian Wells, Kyrgios commented on a Tennis365 Instagram post. He used this chance to continue his criticism of Sinner and the decision.
Like his team that gave him a prohibited substance…gets more cringe every day.
Nick Kyrgios said on Tennis365‘s Instagram post
Many people, especially Kyrgios, think the ban is too short. The suspension lets Sinner return in time for the Italian Open without missing a Grand Slam. Kyrgios said that “fairness in tennis does not exist.”
