Boris Becker has commented on the doping case involving Jannik Sinner.

In an interview reported by Tennis Up To Date, the German spoke about anti-doping controls and integrity in tennis, highlighting the Italian's ethics and personality.

"Yes, doping is completely opposite to his personality. I have total confidence in him. I am more wary of players who suddenly explode during a season or who are phenomenal for two or three tournaments. That kind of thing is suspicious. But Jannik has been among the best for years."

For the record, Sinner was sentenced to a 3-month suspension for negligence by the World Anti-Doping Agency. This decision follows a positive test for clostebol (an anabolic steroid) at Indian Wells in 2024.

I am surprised about relatively low attendance at Roland Garros which was the most popular slam 20+ years ago. I myself love it as well as really loving aus and us opens. I don't care about Wimbledon, sometimes maybe I can watch women's tennis. I hate Wimbledon's white dress code, I feel like I am watching junior tennis...I watched very few matches like Graf davenport final in 1999 the last time.....

It will really be befitting if he attains his 25th Grand Slam crown at the AO for he's truly the GOAT & this will stamp him & endorse his GOAT status without an iota of doubt

Almost as important to Djokovic as Slam #25--and requiring less luck--is beating Federer's total of 103 singles titles. He'll play 250s, and might even surpass Connors's 109.
