Jannik Sinner's decision to accept the agreement with WADA has generated an impressive number of reactions in every corner of the world. This solution - which provides for a three-month suspension from the professional tour for the Italian ace - has not found a favorable opinion from most of the players who have complained about lack of fairness.

If he had arrived at the trial before the CAS in Lausanne, the world number 1 would have risked suffering a suspension of one to two years which would have had a much more significant impact on his career.

In reality, the 3-time Grand Slam champion did not want to accept the agreement with WADA but was convinced by his team of lawyers. The 23-year-old from Sesto Pusteria would have had to wait many more months before knowing his fate with certainty and did not want to continue living in this situation of enormous stress, which had begun in March 2024.

Bracciali defends Sinner

Jannik will miss six tournaments in that time, including four Masters 1000, but he will return to action in Rome in front of his home fans in May and will be one of the top favorites at Roland Garros (having already won the first Major of the season in Australia).

In a long interview with 'Fanpage', former Italian ace Daniele Bracciali commented on Sinner's decision to accept the agreement with WADA: "Some players have lined up against Jannik, such as Stan Wawrinka, who is one of the most disliked players on the tour.

There's no denying that WADA has treated athletes differently based on their caliber throughout its history.

However, it is necessary to delve into individual cases and not equate them at random.

In my opinion, one of the main reasons why Sinner agreed to this deal is the timing.

Such a case stays in your mind all day long: you think about it during the day and during the night, often even while you sleep through dreams.

If he had continued like this, maybe even a Martian like him would have been destroyed."
