Sinner is serving a three-month ban under the settlement with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), who had filed a case against him for testing positive for clostebol in March 2024, seeking a two-year ban.
The 23-year-old is not allowed to train; therefore, he indulges in other activities to keep himself busy. In the last five weeks, he has been spotted playing padel and golf, going skiing, and hiking. He even attended the Milan Fashion Week, representing Gucci.
Racing is one of Sinner’s passions, besides tennis. He has shown up at multiple F1 races to watch and enjoy the sport. He hit the tracks of the Kart Planet circuit in Busca for go-karting with his fellow Italian friends, one of whom was a former F1 racer.
Sinner is making the most of his ban term, which will also help him avoid the unpleasantness that comes with doping allegations. He can start training on April 13, but he cannot compete in tennis tournaments until May 4.
Jannik Sinner will be able to compete in the Masters 1000 in Rome, which begins on May 7, giving him ample time to prepare for the French Open, which begins on May 25.
