We acknowledge the announcement made by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), concerning the agreement reached between WADA and Jannik Sinner to settle WADA’s appeal.
The original process was run according to the World Anti-Doping Code and Tennis Anti-Doping Programme. Following a thorough investigation by the ITIA (including advice from WADA accredited laboratories), we were satisfied that the player had established the source of the prohibited substance and that the breach was unintentional. Today’s outcome supports this finding.
The ITIA referred the matter to an independent panel which reached a decision of "No Fault or Negligence” and therefore no suspension based on the facts and their application of the rules.
The three-month outcome was only possible by agreement between WADA and the player.
Details of the first instance decision can be found here
