ATP ATP 2025

Bad day for tennis. The optics are terrible given Sinner is #1 and the most recent slam winner.

Unfortunately, it's going to bring into question the integrity of the sport.

The cynic in me wonders what the sanction would have been if Sinner was #100 instead of #1.
He's a convicted drug cheat now should be losing some prize money,ranking points and trophy Jobe lost his medal
 
Just like how there was no Ped for the essendon players If anything what ever they took did the opposite and just caused a heap of soft tissues injuries

Wada is corpupt they let Chinese and Russian athletes who dope compete at the Olympics

Didn't Jobe win the medal during that season? If so, not sure that is a good argument for saying there was no performance enhancing benefit there.

From what I read, Sinner was losing everything during that period. So it is much clearer that there is no benefit there.

Imo, WADA got this right in that regard.

I want to see how the ATP handles this. The AFL stripped Jobe his medal and barred them from playing finals once they copped bans

Probably the same way they handled every other player in the situation... Do nothing as a settlement has been reached.

Ironic you are asking for extra punishment here, but not against any other player who WADA has made a finding against in tennis.

No i want what's fair

Iga 1 month
Halep 6 months
Sinner 3 months

3 players now have been convicted not a good look for the ATP and WTA
 
I'm guessing you want Halep to lose her two Grand Slam Titles too then? Nope, not fair at all to take ranking points, prize money and titles.
Well yeah once your banned by Wada you lose what ever you achieved. Athletes have their medals taken away when they get caught doping at the Olympics why should tennis players be exempt

Once again, you are failing to work out the connection and differences here between the situations. If the circumstances fitted the mould of these Olympic situations and the Essendon saga, I'm sure they would lose it.

The Olympics example you raised and the Essendon saga stripping of titles and the like happened during their respective seasons and events.. Where there is a clear "performancing enhancing benefit". I don't think Player A should lose titles for something they won years before their offence. And I don't think Player B should lose titles and the like where there is no performance enhancing benefit.

E.g. If Essendon won the Premiership in 2011, they should not lose it in 2012 when the saga was then. Are you saying you'd be happy for Essendon to lose ALL of their Premierships?

I don't think players should lose titles from time before or after, or where there is no clear performance enhancing benefit. I don't think it is too hard to understand.

Well no but I do think Sinner should lose at least this year AO trophy

You mean almost a year after his offence where there is still no performance enhancing benefit? That is probably one of the stupidest takes that I have seen on this situation, and I have seen quite a few.
