Summary at a Glance

Djokovic stunned the tennis world in November when he announced that his former Big Four rival Murray was set to join his coaching team for the Australian Open, in a move which delighted many fans across the globe.

Novak Djokovic gave a brutally honest response when asked how tennis players really feel about Jannik Sinner’s three-month ban from the sport.

It was announced on Saturday that Sinner will serve an immediate suspension after a settlement with the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), in a decision described ‘dodgy as’ and ‘too convenient’ by Australian star Nick Kyrgios and former British No.1 Tim Henman respectively.

Sinner twice tested positive for clostebol, a steroid that can be used to build muscle mass, with WADA accepting his explanation that he was accidentally contaminated by a massage from his physiotherapist, who had used a spray containing the banned substance to treat a finger cut.
