how did you react when you learned at the end of august that jannik sinner had tested positive for clostebol?

"you can't wish any player to go through this. i can't imagine the stress or anxiety he felt during this entire period. he managed very well, he continued to play at his best level and managed to dominate the circuit despite everything by winning titles. it's very impressive."

anti-doping authorities have been criticized for being slow to reveal this positive test dating from march and for the lightness of the sanctions imposed. do you share these views?

"i think the anti-doping system should be a little more understandable. in tennis, the rules are super strict, more so than in other sports. i feel like every little mistake, even when it's unintentional, can threaten your career."

I also posted it on archives of our own !!
