“Sinner won a well-deserved victory in the US Open final, despite pressure due to the doping scandal” – Olkhovsky
The winner of two Grand Slam mixed doubles tournaments, Andrei Olkhovsky, believes that world number one Italian Jannik Sinner deservedly won the US Open final.
On Sunday, Sinner defeated American Taylor Fritz 6:3, 6:4, 7:5 to become the US Open champion.
— Yannick was the favorite from the beginning. He achieved a well-deserved victory in the US Open final. Sinner had a relatively easy ending. He played very confidently, despite the pressure that existed even before the US Open due to the doping scandal. Sinner deservedly won, based on the game,” Olkhovsky told the Championship.
On August 20, the International Tennis Integrity Agency (ITIA) reported that Sinner had two positive doping tests in March. The athlete avoided disqualification because he proved that the prohibited substance clostebol entered his body by accident. A number of players have publicly criticized the ITIA for its lack of consistency in handling similar cases. On September 10, Corriere della Sera, citing the Court of Arbitration for Sport, reported that the World Anti-Doping Agency did not challenge the ITIA decision.
