BRISBANE, Australia — On the eve of his return to the court, Novak Djokovic has weighed in on tennis’s high-profile doping cases and criticized what he perceives as double standards in the sport.
Off the court, Djokovic lent his voice Sunday to Kyrgios’s strong criticisms made a day earlier, speaking out at length about the ongoing doping case involving current world No.1 Jannik Sinner. The International Tennis Integrity Agency charged both Sinner and former women’s world No.1 Iga Swiatek with anti-doping breaches earlier in the year.
The Serbian further criticized the lack of transparency from tennis authorities regarding doping breaches. Despite his frustrations, Djokovic remains focused on the season ahead. After undergoing knee surgery earlier this year, he returned to reach the Wimbledon final but skipped the end-of-year ATP Finals, where Sinner capped a dominant season with his eighth title.
