Nick Kyrgios issues brutal statement on his criticism of Jannik Sinner

Nick Kyrgios says he absolutely has zero regrets over his criticism of the Jannik Sinner doping drama as the 2022 Wimbledon finalist suggests there have definitely been double standards in how the Italian’s situation was handled and how some other cases were treated. 

Last Tuesday, an absolute bombshell dropped when it was announced that Sinner twice failed a doping test in March after a prohibited steroid was found in his system. However, the world No. 1 didn’t spend a day suspended because his team was able to quickly determine from which product it came and prove that it was contaminated. Therefore, the 23-year-old Italian was allowed to resume action on the Tour while the investigation was ongoing.

And after the process concluded, it was said that Sinner “bore no fault or negligence” for the contaminated product that was used to treat a cut in Indian Wells and avoided any suspension. 

Shortly after those news were released, Kyrgios ripped the entire situation as “ridiculous” and opined that Sinner should have at least been removed two years from the sport. 

Ridiculous – whether it was accidental or planned. You get tested twice with a banned (steroid) substance… you should be gone for 2 years. Your performance was enhanced. Massage cream…. Yeah nice 🙄 https://t.co/13qR0F9nH2

Since then, Kyrgios hasn’t backed down a bit and he refused to buy into explanations that were provided.
