Nick Kyrgios has taken an obsessive attitude towards Jannik Sinner in recent months. As everyone knows, the world number 1 has been at the center of a delicate doping case since March last year, when he was found positive for Clostebol twice during the Indian Wells Masters 1000.

The 2-time Grand Slam champion had a very stressful time and had to attend numerous hearings, until ITIA recognized him as innocent just before the start of the 2024 US Open.
The Italian ace thought this story was over, but WADA left everyone speechless by appealing against the acquittal sentence and opening a new trial before the CAS in Lausanne. The exact date of this trial is not yet known, but it should take place in early March.
Kyrgios is exaggerating
In recent months, Jannik has been harshly attacked by Kyrgios who has not missed a single opportunity to throw arrows at him. A few days ago, the talent from Canberra also criticized Cruz Hewitt - son of Lleyton - because of his decision to practice with Sinner at Melbourne Park.

On the latest edition of his well-known podcast, Rennae Stubbs said that Nick is really exaggerating: Going after Cruz Hewitt, for hitting with the world number one, who is coached by the guy who coached his Dad, in Lleyton Hewitt, Darren Cahill.
Darren Cahill was essentially one of the biggest and most important people in Lleyton Hewitts early life as a tennis player, helping him get to number one, so they have a special relationship. They are both from Adelaide. They clearly have a unique and special relationship.
She continued: Clearly Darren said does Cruz want to hit with Jannik on Centre Court. Of course, Lleyton is going to say yes to that. That is an opportunity any kid would want. To give the guy s*** on social media and go after him is not a joke. If you want to joke, you call his Dad or call him, because Im pretty sure you have either of their numbers. You dont give him shit on a public forum, thats embarrassing to him. He just doesnt know how to stop and learn to be an adult in these situations.
