Retired tennis legend Roger Federer weighed in on the controversy surrounding Jannik Sinner as the top-ranked tennis player in the world competes for a U.S. Open title after having twice tested positive for a banned substance earlier this year. 'It’s not something we want to see in our sport, these types of news, regardless if he did something or not, or any player did,' Federer told Savannah Guthrie on TODAY on Sept. 3. 'It’s just noise that we don’t want.
'I understand the frustration of, 'Has he been treated the same as others?'' Federer said. 'And I think this is where it comes down to.' The ITIA ruled on Aug. 20 that Sinner bears 'no fault or negligence' for testing positive, according to a news release. After each positive test, Sinner successfully appealed a provisional suspension so he was allowed to keep playing, ITIA officials said.
